According to a Nigerian businesswoman named Angela Job Emodiae, she sold Kuli Kuli, a spiced groundnut cake, in 2022 and generated sales of about N1 billion.
Emodiae, whose company is called Anjees Food and is situated in Jos, Plateau state, has stated that she aims to earn more than N2 billion in 2023.

She claimed that most of her customers are Nigerians living overseas who place online orders for the goods, which she then ships to them via freight services.
Emodiae claimed that she has not yet started exporting the goods and that she just uses social media, particularly Facebook, to make sales.
Emodiae demonstrated how clients paid her for her services using receipts and WhatsApp conversations that she uploaded on her Facebook.
She stated in one of the discussions that Nigerians residing overseas are her main clientele. A happy customer, according to the self-described owner of Anjees Foods, allegedly credited her account with almost N1 million in one occasion.
She claimed to supply the goods to affluent customers who make bulk purchases and to have a large crew on hand to help her deliver the goods to customers.
The inhabitant of Jos Plateau Stae claimed that in addition to her Kuli Kuli enterprise, she also sells Peanut hamburgers.
However, Internet users have criticized Emodiae’s assertions, claiming that they are false and impossible given the state of the economy and Nigeria today.
Adichie Chuks said; “If Nigerians can believe that Tinubu APC can deliver them from Buhari APC, there’s NOTHING they cannot believe. “Even if she tells Nigerians that she made N1 trillion naira in sales in 1 month, there are millions of Nigerians that will defend her with their blood.” They called her claims a publicity stunt and attention-seeking.”
Hamidu Yakubu wrote; “When I recaptured my conscience I quickly notice that Nigeria’s problems is not only on leadership …. If Nigerians can change leaders one hundred times nothing can change unless we (followers) change our attitudes therefore Nigeria’s problems are not only on leaders but followers.”
