Here is a story for all you unenlightened CHILDREN, My father started his life by hawking food stuffs as a teenager, then he made enough to get a small table in a public market, then years later he made enough to get a shop and started selling clothes, then he opened a second shop then the third, then he bought a land and built apartments for rent, then married my mother, then built more apartments for apartments for rent, sent his younger siblings to school, we were 7 of his kids, he sent us all abroad to study outside the country. My siblings are engineers, Phd Holders, MBA holders from top institutions globally partly scholarships graduated top of their class. I went into the tourism Business, I closed on a 30 room hotel in spain during the lockdown in 2021, just bought a 40 room hotel in germany early this year, I have 50 percent ownership in two hotel chains in hotpots in South Asia, amongst a host of many properties i wasted money on in nigeria littered investment in different kinds of asset classes. A story of courage of an igbo teenage boy who chose to dare, strive and endure. I am still in my early 40s the world has not heard the last of me,

On one hand you are complaining that igbo people are controlling all the markets in nigeria, while on the other hand you are mocking their street traders, how do think they ended up being the only ones surviving in these markets? Its because if they have been through the schooling process of petty business survival like hawking or apprentiship.

Let me be the first to tell you, those igbo people hawking on the street today, if they dont get killed by the dangers of street trading. In 4 years or more, they end owning shops in places that you envy them for, but if you are given the same shop and goods you cannot last two years before you are forced to close, because you havent been through that school process, part of which you are mocking here.

Big ups to genuine legitimate hustlers out there, street hawking or not, in a country where you could have easily been influenced by crime, you have dared God and chosen a path of straightness..Your sweat today, as long as you keep your math right, is what your children and their children will exist to tell. I am living proof!

Obviously Ebonyi cannot mathematically make up 50 percent of hawkers in nigeria, not even up to 10 percent, are ebonyi people hawking in Borno, Kano, Maidugri?, The OP is a known bigot, I still had to respond.

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 and/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!
Shut your trap jor. I don't know if the mods here are naturally stupid or what?

Threads that should be pushed to front page are mostly ignored while useless threads like this are shoved up our throats.

Now for your information , see Yoruba, see hawking. Yorubas can hawk for Africa. They hawk anything from bread to vegetables from Agbo to roasted snakes from tomatoes to satchet water. Telling the truth for once will not kill you.

Ebonyi are strong people they do most hard labour works especially the he poor among them. But you see hawking, no one can ever erase that mark from ndi Yoruba.

Akwa Ibom State before GOA was the highest State that collected allocation in South South but it's was mismanaged by former Governor Victor Attach who had his selfish interests.

Always make your findings very well before you write your rubbish, you have know clear statistics Akwa Ibomites are housemaids, if you show a statistics backing your claim, I will give you $100 worth ethereum.....

Foolish idiot have you gone to any Federal Government Institution or parastatals and you didn't see any Akwa Ibomite heading a department or working there...... Some of you useless and senseless fellow feel that Akwa Ibom State started when Godswill Akpabio became Governor but come to Uniport a federal University and see a whole Department and Building dedicated to Donald Ekong an Akwa Ibom man for his academic excellence and achivements yet the indigenes are nowhere to be found... Clement Isong is the only CBN Governor from a minority tribe, he is from Onna in Akwa Ibom State and first Governor of Cross River state, SGF to former president Obasanjo was Offot ekaette who is from Eket in Akwa Ibom, And presently Godswill Akpabio is the Senate President of the 10th Assembly.... The houseboys has been ruling your Useless and low life asses for decades yet You still write rubbish as the only thing you are good at...

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.
Do you know what $1 rate is today? SMH

They should change some of their characters if they want us to like them. We don't have problem with our other eastern brothers. There was a time i lived with my sister in Benin city. We have about 4 Ebonyi working for my sister's husband in his shop. My experience with them makes me to hate them more. Infact, they are terrible. You won't understand until you become close to them. They are like Hausas. They only love themselves.

Dear ma , I appreciate your matured response and I want you to keep that cool matured temperament. It is why you're successful yesterday, today and tomorrow.

However, from my experience dealing with bullies, especially cyberbullies, no cool blessed words like yours can appease them or change them. They are narcissist from highly dysfunctional horrible family backgrounds and they are criminals who feel they can hide behind monikers to commit crimes.

We must never enable them here or offline. Report them to the mods and give their cyberbullies comments digital footprints so that when discreet background checks are being done on them, their criminal activities online will come up and they will be denied of such opportunities.
