A journalist has issued a public notice concerning two boys who are known for criminal activities while selling sachet water in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state. Emmanuel Owuala took to Facebook to narrate how the two street boys snatched the money he shared to them and another young boy in a bid to help them.

After sharing the story online, some Facebook users confirmed that the two boys are ''criminals'' known for stealing in the area - with a man revealing how they almost snatched his phone from a tricycle.

PUBLIC NOTICE :

This two boys are growing to become a major threat to this society.

Yesterday, at Udoumana Traffic light, they me begged me for small thing to eat, I told them to meet me at Discovery Park where I was going for a meeting, on getting there, they arrived.

I took out time to ask them few questions about who they are and their origin, they both told me their parents are dead. I knew they lied, but I told them I was going to help me.

I asked what they will like to do so as to keep them going, and they said they will like to sell pure water, I then asked how much they needed, they both said they needed to get the rubber (as seen in the picture above), I then asked another boy who was selling pure water to go and buy the rubber, each costing 700naira.

Before the rubbers were brought, I asked them about school since it was free, these boys said they don't have the need for school since they can't feed themselves. But I encouraged them to go to school in the morning and sell in the afternoon.

When the rubbers were brought, I asked how much they needed to start their business and they said just 200 each which will give them 2 bags each and when the sell, they will make another 200 as profit. After counseling them, I gave them 1k each, and assigned another little boy who was selling pure water already to go with them and ensure they bought the pure water and use the balance to eat and pay for the daily tickets.

30mins later, the little came back and informed me that these boys snatched the money from him, threatening to beat him up and bought a certain concoction and took a Keke and ran away without buying the pure for sell.

I'm doing this post because I know alot of people may have seen them and wished to help them if they have not done that already. We should not be encouraging them to beg for a living, but get something doing

Typical to all tribes


But most deeply rooted in Igbo land , yes i have had first hand experience , those who snatch phones in Lagos are adults lol

Tomorrow they will graduate from this petty stealing
and become another Nnamdi Kanu.

yeye man!!!!!!!

At this age, something need to be done b4 they carry gun

Boys at this stage ( the rebellious phase), it's hard to make them do what they don't want to...Even if it's for their own good.

Upcoming armed robbers, Rapists, ritualists, 419, or political thugs if they continue with this notorious lifestyle

I see Afonjas spewing thrash as if its not their kids that graduated to Agberos, baddo, ikorodu phone snatchers, skull miners and the rest. instead of you to focus on the topic you are spewing thrash here

hmmm

Somebody should beat them.

Buhari!!! Buhari!!! Buhari!!!
