Female coffin seller speaks about her business

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a lady who makes and sells coffins had opened up about her business.

The woman, during an interview, said she also drives ambulances in addition to her coffin business, which she has been doing for seven years. The businesswoman said she feels okay with the job as she considers it a help rendered to the dead and their bereaved loved ones.

"People say we engage in voodoo practices for the business. They also say we pray for people to die. Prayer is prayer. Anyone who puts an item for sale prays that customers show interest in the item. So, I pray for customers to come, but I don't pray for anyone to die. So, let those already dead be buried - those are my customers," she said in pidgin.
