       A Nigerian man, Tobenna Obiano, was very surprised after seeing a middle-aged woman driving a tricycle popularly known as 'Keke Napep' at a fuel station in Anambra state. The surprised man who revealed how happy the woman was while hustling in a male dominated work - encouraged her by paying for her fuel.

Below is what Tobenna shared on Facebook;

"Yesterday, while driving to Umuomaku in Orumba South Local Government Area of Anambra State with few friends for the traditional wedding of Chybyke, Mr. Tony Onyedibe, the elder brother to Mr. Onyedibe Arthur, I pulled up to buy petrol at a certain gas station in Awgbu of Orumba North LGA, I met this fine woman.

At first, I wasn’t sure, when I got closer, it was too real to be a myth. A woman keke Napep rider. I was happy. I smiled. I greeted her and asked if I could hug her, she agreed. I told her I wanted to tap from her blessings of industriousness. A woman of about 35 to 40years riding a tricycle as a public transporter to make money. I was happy.

Now, after we took these photos, I asked her how much gas she wanted to buy and she told me. I offered to pay that she fills up her tank. She needs encouragement. Yes, the cost of petrol is quite high, but I can’t buy mine and leave, when I have seen an industrious lady who’s hustling more than some men folks. The pump attendant even told me that there are three women tricycle riders in the town. I was amazed.

It is for women like this that I often beat my chest and insist that Nigerian nay African women are hardworking and very industrious. They have the energy and they proudly put it to work.

I told her, “Nnem, jisie ike, otekete aka o di njo, odi nma, God bless you. I love you!” She smiled and said, “daalu nwannem, o ga adiri gi na nma”. I now walk in dominion and her prayerful blessings and wishes would lead my part.Now, it is particularly great to meet a true slay mama, not those daughters of eve that often line Abakiliki street in Awka looking for who to devour. This is New Year and its for persons like this woman that I ask myself, “are you really pushing as you should. I need to put in more effort”.
