She used to roast over 150 tubers of yam each day,  however, the economic recession had forced her to reduce the quantity to 100.

Mrs Nwosu said she had started the business because her husband’ s low earnings and a welder wasn't enough to take care of their family need.
“My husband is a welder by profession but with the current situation of things in the country, what he is getting cannot sustain the family ; so, I engaged myself in the yam roasting business to support him so that our family will not suffer ,” she explained.
