ABOU Wassiatou was born in 1974 in Ifangni in Plateau County. She is married to ABOUDOU Raoufou, an automobile painter. Wassiatou and Raoufou have two children who are both in school and still in their care. The family lives in Agbodjèdo, a district of Cotonou, the economic capital of the Republic of Benin. Wassiatou sells various goods (cookies, candy, detergents, cassava flour, etc.), corn, and cornmeal mash. She sells her merchandise out of her house and door-to-door. Thanks to the revenues from her business, she helps to cover family expenses.

She has had two ALIDé loans that she has repaid. To develop her business further, she’s requesting a third ALIDé loan.
