To achieve this, he decided to offload a full trailer of goods, a task that proved far more demanding than anticipated.
Upon completion, his expectations of a satisfying reward were shattered when he received a meager N3,000 as payment.
This reality check prompted him to share his experience on X, expressing his disappointment with the pay.
In his words:
“Today I ticked something out of my bucket list, I’ll share with you guys. I’ve always wanted to do a hard job at least one day, after offloading full trailer myself they paid me 3kðŸ˜.”
