Below are photos of street seller sighted in New York City traffic. The recent ban on street and road side trading in Lagos by the Lagos State Government has been met with divided opinions..

Well, that hawker in NY will not try any fvcking tricks with you because he knows you've probably got a gun under your seat. Not so in Lagos, I am afraid. Hawker will slap you, steal your wristwatch your necklace and maybe your car if you are unlucky. grin grin grin[/size]

They are deceiving themselves. That picture is of a Nigerian man who understands Nigeria and knows what's going on in the country. He just wants to trend on the internet. Go and hawk in America and see if you will not spend the night in Jail.

No big deal here na,a frnd in philly even showed me somev pics of people hawking last year only that you cnt compare the level to lagos own atal...in lagos an average hawker is as fast as Usain bolt which leads to cars knocking them down most of the time and that's what the lagos govt is trying to stop i think...

How i wished this law against hawking can be changed

They arw just trying to survive

One of my major problems with all Lagos state admins is that they arent compassionate

Pity these guys abeg. Agberoes collect money in Lagos Island just for putting your bags on the floor

My opinion sha

No lowlife should quote me unnecessarily

I am not just totally in support of this. Especially when there is no alternatives for the seller. Not nice.

Must government provide for everybody?
This was the same tune when govt banned Okada, but where are they now?

But the truth remains that if these hawkers are put off the street, Lagos will lose a part of its 'flavour' and identity and also, pple fit dey die from thirst and hunger when stuck in traffic.

What part of Lagos flavour was lost when Okada was banned on our highways?

And I'm surprised ooo, so people can die from thirst on a two hour (maximum) traffic. Na wa be to you oo

The guy is really hawking...looks like 149th St Bridge...Manhattan/Bronx. Red light...guy walks between lanes against the traffic until light changes...walks back.starts all over again... $1 per bottle...ice cold...doesn't have to be shouting cause everyone knows the price. Maybe two hawkers the most at that point.... and one at some other major red lights. Yes...license is required...but police usually turn a blind eye in summer. Don't dare ask me how I know.
Re: Photos Of A Hawker In New York City Traffic As Shared By Twitter User by RaptorX: 3:15pm On Jul 04, 2016
People sell cold bottled water mainly at traffic lights in summer months in most major American cities. Anybody drawing a comparison with the chaotic street hawking and selling in Lagos must be out of their damn minds.

Did I mention okada? Or do you still not see okada in all parts of Lagos even in Lekki and VI till today?
If you have comprehension issues, consult a teacher. When I say flavour, did you not see the mark or do you not know that its meaning is inferred as it is figurative? Be careful ooooo.

There are folks back here in Nigeria doing far more better than him, you don't need to actually move out to succeed in life. If you are destined to be wealthy your goodness will meet you wherever you may be at the right time.
