ODJO ODOU Wossilatou est vendeuse de fromage fait à base de farine de soja. La farine de soja est transformée en pâte, découpée et frit dans l’huile d’arachide. Elle a 35 ans et mère de 05 enfants dont les âges sont compris entre 18 et 4 ans. Ses trois grands enfants sont élèves, les plus jeunes sont à la maison et ne sont pas encore scolarisés.
