Reality TV star Chioma Goodhair, a cast member of RHOLagos, has shared a surprising secret to her financial success and how she made her first million.
In a recent episode of the Big Friday Show, hosted by BBNaija’s Tacha, Chioma revealed that her first million naira was earned through hosting events during her university days.
She stated that her entrepreneurial spirit was ignited at the University of Birmingham, where she was known for her friendly and outgoing personality.
She highlighted how she leveraged her popularity to organize parties on campus, convincing hundreds of students, mostly ladies, to buy tickets to attend.
“My first million naira was probably from throwing events in uni. I went to the University of Birmingham and I didn’t even plan to but I was so popular then and I knew a lot of people and I was very friendly. I’m still a friendly person I don’t look it but I am. I’m also a girls girl and I’m very good at convincing people to do stuff.”
“So back then some guys used to organise parties and one guy would be like, ‘Come and sell tickets to your friends,’ and I’d bring like 100 or 200 girls. So the next year he was like why don’t we come together to throw these parties because you’re really good at selling tickets?”
“So we organised this party and we made so much money and when I convert it, it would have been over a million naira…It was like six thousand pounds…”
“Oh wow, so back then it would have been like eight or nine million,” Tacha asked.
“Yes,” Chioma replied.
Chioma Goodhair revealed that her success in event planning and promotion not only earned her a significant income but also helped her develop valuable skills in marketing, communication, and leadership.
