Aliyu Na Idris, a 26-year-old guy from Kaduna State, has put himself on the market in Kano.
The man, who is alleged to be a tailor, has been seen walking about Kano with a poster that reads, “This man is for sale for N20 million."
The young man has been on the streets for five days looking for someone to buy him, and he informed Daily Trust that he did so because he was in financial difficulty.
He revealed that he first offered himself for sale in Kaduna, but after failing to find a buyer, he relocated to Kano.
Aliyu said “Even though many people have offered me various prices of N10m, N5m and N300,000 in Kano, I refused because the amount is less than what I expected."
He explained that his tailoring firm had failed owing to the financial crisis, causing him to lose customers and become financially disadvantaged, therefore he opted to sell himself for N20 million because he had no other option.
Aliyu expressed his thoughts on what he intends to do with the money.
“I will give my parents N10m; I will give N5m as tax to the state where I was bought, the person who helped in advertising me will be rewarded with N2m while the remaining N3m will be kept for me under the care of the person who buys me for my daily upkeep.”
