She noted, however, that her father started paying them N100 per chore to encourage them to do the work.

Amaka said it was difficult for her to adjust to doing chores like cooking because she could not imagine cooking every day.

She said:

"My major problem was cooking because I could not imagine myself cooking every day. In order to encourage us, my daddy said he was going to pay us salary to clean the house. This was the best news I could ever get."

As time went by and they learned how to do the chores, Amaka said her father stopped paying them.

"And no salary. Just chores and insha Allah. I did same with my kids. At a point I was paying them 1k to read a book and it was compounded. You read 2, you get 2k instead of 1k and 3 you get 4k."

Earlier, a man posted a video showing how he uses good food to pamper himself when he comes back from work.

The man, who says he works eight hours, was spotted making a delicious-looking meal which was filled with meat.

He noted that he cannot come back from a stressful day's job and eat noodles for dinner because his body needs a proper meal.
