According to Saudat Idris Bello, a time has come when ladies should stop relying solely on their parents at their growing age because they have done the best they can do for a child including upbringing, taking children to school among other parental responsibilities.
She also said the method she is adopting when people want to purchase the snacks is orders are made through online channels and deliveries are made by her or the customers will come and take it themselves.

She also said the profit she is making is appreciable and is making her more committed to the Business.

She said one of the things that impressed her as a woman was that those patronizing her online have never met her in person, which is very good for a Muslim woman where much interaction with people who are not one’s relative is restricted.
