In an Instagram post, the bread seller described the filling of absolute joy and said she had been all smiles since she received the good news. Abisoye went on to pray for the actress and thanked all those that voted for her to win Aigbe’s Instagram give away challenge.

She wrote, @realmercyaigbe made me to see there is light despite all of the darkness. Thanks for the compassion and generosity, I have been wearing a broader smile since yesterday.

“May God continue to lift you higher. Big hugs too to all that voted for me, having such supportive people is indeed a blessing, I am indeed grateful.

Aigbe had organised a challenge tagged #MercyAigbe3million challenge to her fans to celebrate three million followers on Instagram.

See the post that earned bread seller, Absioye N50.000.

But for bravery, I wouldn’t have been able to put up this picture here, but I see no reason why I couldn’t because sise sise j’are osi. I’m a petty trader and I hawk bread early mornings and afternoons when my kids would have returned from school. People call me ‘internasonal’ while some call me gbajumo oni bread. Well, the name might come in their numbers, I’m proud of what I do because with my service in my neighbourhood some of them will have to drink their tea without bread, eat their beans without bread against their wish, or will even have to lick their butter like that. I have a passion for what I do because I satisfy people’s want for food. I earn stipends from this, but it at least gives me an opportunity to put food on the table for I and my kids. Would love to establish and get more earnings if I have the resources to. Thanks for the opportunity @realmercyaigbe #mercyaigbe3million.
