You cleverly dodged the question he asked you. May be I should remind you;

He said,

when are you going to honour the agreement you made with us here about deactivating you account if Tinubu wins the presidential election.

All the people who sell charger and cloth with wheelbarrows are mostly from Ebonyi hard working but that route is too stressful

Are you normal? What's my business with what report said? Once a report say something it becomes true? And who told you I'm Igbo? FYI, I'm not Igbo and I'm always having clashes with Igbos but I'm not biased neither am I a hypocrite.
whatever you are is your business, if you have no business with what the report said, then why are you commenting ignorantly? I am sure a research was carried out before reaching that conclusion but here you are with no fact to dispel the report but here you talking nonsense, abeg face front😂

Not lie tho.

Most are from afikpo, izzi or ezza local government
Especially that Izzy and Ezza ppl. In as much as I'm not trying to downplay their hustle I still believe that Government of that state can do better to change the narrative. Akwaibom did it under Akpabio. I think afikpo ppl are the most enlightened ppl from that state though I might be wrong. One thing I like about these ppls is that they are hardworking. Their women dey work hard. It's just the bad eggs among them that's stealing even a trivial things like biro.

I am very disappointed that this ugly trend of using minors as street hawkers is still prevalent among Ebonyi state indigenes despite all the hardwork and huge investments right from the PDP Governor, Dr Sam Egwu, HE Elechi to the Dave Umahi-led administration to reverse this ugly trend.

How on earth can Ebonyi state which is one of the least populous states in Nigeria account for 60% of hawkers in the most populous black nation on earth shocked That's extreme poverty or worst form of human trafficking.

It is looking like there's a clandestine human trafficking industry that recruits these young boys and girls for this trade and Ebonyi state Government should go after the kingpins while empowering the arrested street hawkers.

In fact, Ebonyi can request other states to help arrest these Ebonyi minors and return them to Ebonyi for welfare rehabilitation and empowerment.

No doubt, it is good news that Ebonyi state is doing something to curb it by giving money as much as N2 million to the Ebonyi state boys and girls willing to quit the dangerous street hawking trade in Lagos and all over Nigeria but they need to get to the root of the problem.

Akwa Ibom did it by reducing the export of their people to cities as house helps so Ebonyi can reverse this ugly tag of the state as the street hawker recruitment capital of Nigeria and Africa. Check my signature for free stuffs!
THERE'S DIGNITY IN LEGITIMATE HAWKING BUT THERE'S NO DIGNITY IN SKULL MINING AND HAWKING AGBO WITHOUT NAFDAC APPROVAL. grin

Nigeria media is one of the major problem we have in this country, if not for gain saying, how on Earth will you allocate a whooping 60% to just one state, out of 36, so you are practically saying that Ebonyi State has more hawkers than the whole northern Nigeria? As Nigeria's economy stand, it is statistically possible that one out of every 5 families in South West will produce at least one hawker. Not to talk of northerners that exports themselves everywhere doing all sorts of dirty jobs including Hawking of different products. Am not from Ebonyi but, I think the media needs to stop giving these people unnecessary and denigrating colouration.

Nothing wrong with hawking. Many rose from hawking to millionaires in the same Ebonyi. By the way hawking is not an Igbo word. Definitely not synonyms to Ebonyi.

Accept the bitter truth. Almost all the hawkers in Nigeria are from your ebonyi state. Ask your governor to focus on human capital development

When am living in Onitsha, there's this Ebonyi couple that sold the child of her housemaid to a rich man. The girl was hawking Okpa for the couple and get pregnant. They allow her to born because they have already seen a buyer. If not they would have send her back or abort the pregnancy. After giving birth, the girl continue hawking for them. They do beat this girl almost every day. Fear Ebonyi people o. That's why we Anambrarians and most Igbos don't like them.

If you are truly nwafor then you need to be wise with your assertions in a public forum . I am from Anambra as well but I don't hate Eboyians.
Yes, some of their acts are condemnable likewise other state with their own issues. If you are born in that state, do you think you will be any different?

There was a time when we dehumanized and chased Ghana out of Nigeria but today the reverse is the case.
Stop hating on your fellow Igbo men and women! Be kind to everyone because nobody knows tomorrow.
