Negative comments brought blessings for Jeminat
Identified as @mhidey22123 on TikTok, Jeminat had earlier posted a video of her new shop and thanked God for making it possible.
However, what seemed like a great feat for Jeminat was criticised by many netizens in the comments section who insisted that the shop had very few goods.
Jeminat was taunted and made a laughing stock in the comments section and this drew the attention of well meaning Nigerians including Ola of Lagos to support her financially.
In a new video shared via her TikTok account, Jeminat said her bank account which only slightly above N20,000 now has over N1,300,000.
While sharing the video, she said:
"I want to use this medium to express my heartfelt gratitude to Ola of Lagos and to all the people God use to support me. Thank you so much for your generous financial and motivational support.
"You have truly exceeded my expectations and inspired me beyond measure. May God never forsake you and your love ones. God will listen and answer all your heart desire in Jesus name."
