Sometimes, different people do the same thing for different reasons. Not everyone that shops at malls do so for ostentation sake. Some people do it for hygiene sake. Roadside sellers will sneeze into the gutter or urinate or even go to a hidden corner to poo and return to their stand to continue selling without washing their hands. I have watched a food hawker using water from the gutter to wash the plates she was using to serve people. Actually, the water was rushing out of the gutter wall like tap water, and looked clean. Some of the customers (mostly bus drivers and bus loaders) that crowded her watched her use the water to wash the plates and afterwards accepted the food served in those plates.

A few days ago, I wanted to buy Dates from an Aboki. I sighted him while he was still a bit far and I was waiting for him to get to where I was standing so that I would patronise him. As he was coming, he stopped, packed his wheelbarrow, moved close to a gutter, urinated and returned to continue his movement without washing his hands. As he was getting closer to where I was standing, someone stopped him and he had to use a cup to measure tiger nuts into a waterproof bag for the person. This is the same person who just urinated without washing his hands. But if there's a shopping mall nearby and I ignore him to patronise the shopping mall, someone like you will condemn me for not patronising him.

I pity roadside sellers. I give them money when I can afford to do so. When I manage to buy things from them, I don't accept balance from them. But I don't have to express the pity to the detriment of my health.

Apart from hygiene, there is another concern. The ones that hawk cashew nuts are very mischievous and crafty. They use neat cashew nuts to cover very bad ones in the nylons or in the bottles. Once you open what you got from them, you will regret patronising them. If it is not wickedness, why do they carefully use neat ones to cover the bad ones? If you buy cashew nut from a shopping mall, the nuts inside will be as neat as the ones you could see from outside the transparent bottle.

You have said it all. Nothing will make me risk my health because I want to patronize roadside sellers. I know what and what I can get from road side and I know what I will never get from them even at gun point.

Mariangeles:
Honestly, overcoming what you went through, and not holding anything against your mum is commendable.
You don't seem like what you've been through.

Thanks... I did for sometime growing up though trying to understand why everything was the way it is and I always had questions waiting to be answered.

Truth is it affected me in ways I can't even explain but when I realized it was eating me up too much I just decided "well, things didn't work out the way they all thought it would and I won't be the consequences of it all... They won't have that luxury of me paying for thier actions and inactions" kinda psyching myself deliberately everytime the feeling came over me to blame anyone or bother over WHY. I just sort of outgrew them and my love for her overtook me too
[quote author= ] Only God know wetin you do. [/quote]Lol... She always makes certain biased comments so I just sort of attacked her, next thing na month ending suspension abi ban 😁

Mariangeles:
Na wa O!

How were you able to overcome what you went through?
Would you say have healed?
Were/are you the only child of your mum?

No mind say I dey ask you plenty plenty question.

Prayers, God, meditation and just letting things go... I left home early. After I was done with everything academically. I only stayed one year to handle a section of one of my dad's businesses cos he insisted and there was good money for me so I did it but after a year I left the city for good.
Yes I do believe I have
Nope but I'm the first
