Every Nigerian has a dream. But what if you finally had the chance to fund it?
From small chops hustlers eyeing their Kiosk to families praying for stable rent money, we asked Nigerians one simple question:
“If you had ₦5 million today, what would you do?”
The answers poured in. They were honest, emotional, and because this is Nigeria, sometimes downright hilarious.
The Dreamers
For many people, ₦5 million sounded like the green light to finally start something meaningful.
A woman in PH told us, “I’ll use N5m to start my food business. People must chop, and this money go set me up.”
-
A young graduate in Lagos said, “I’ll open a lounge that doubles as a viewing centre. Ball is life, and is never going anywhere.
-
Another respondent confessed, “Forget big English. First thing, I go settle mama shop. Then small-small, I’ll build my poultry.”
For this group, ₦5 million is not a luxury. It is seed money. The fuel for ambition.
The Hustlers
Then came the everyday Nigerians who just want relief from wahala.
“First thing, I’ll pay two years’ rent. This Lagos landlord wahala no be here.”
“Light no dey. I go buy generator before anything. Imagine having ₦5m and still sweating in darkness.”
It is the reality of many Nigerians. Before dreams can fly, stability has to come first.
The Lovers
Not all responses were about survival or hustling. Some people had love on their minds.
-
One young man said proudly, “I’ll finally marry Achalugo. Five million is bride price plus honeymoon in Dubai.”
-
Another joked, “If I get ₦5m, my babe go know say I love her. Na ring straight!”
Apparently, ₦5 million is also the currency of commitment😉.
The Escapists
This is 2025 Nigeria, so of course, there were plenty of “japa” dreams.
-
“I’ll buy ticket, pay school fees, and disappear. You people will just be seeing my pictures in Canada.”
-
“Me? Five million? Straight to embassy. Nigeria, bye-bye!”
The laughter was loud, but the undertone was clear. For some people, escape feels like the only way forward.
Why It Matters
Money means different things to different people. It could mean freedom, stability or even love. But the constant theme was this: every Nigerian has a dream, they just need the chance to fund it.
