Working as a cleaner
Aside from working for someone as a cleaner, Adunbarin also offered sanitation services. In a conversation with Legit.ng in 2021, she said:
"When I'm called for weekend cleaning service, here is what I do; I wash plates, pots, clean the gas cookers, mob the floor, wash the tiles on the kitchen wall, then I moved to palour ; sweep, dust and mop. Rooms I sweep, fold clothes and mop after then I wash the toilet and bathroom and sometimes I wash clothes too. After all this I'll be paid either 2k or N2500. The day I clean new apartment I was paid 10 thousand naira."
The lady came from a challenging past to blaze the trail. No wonder her post on X celebrating her win gathered over 900 comments with more than 2,000 reposts as at the time of writing this report.
