Crude as the method is, people are trying to survive. If you go round Nigeria looking for a Saint before you can help, I bet you, you won't find a single one. So just do what you must and let their conscientious judge them. That way, you would've taught them a lesson they won't quickly forget. None of us is truly righteous.

This is a very wrong mindset. He will find many who are still honest. Stop generalising. I have met with some and I can boldly say that there are still honest people irrespective of the economic hardship.

Speak for yourself, many Nigerians are still honest, regardless of the situation we are in.

There really is no justification for cheating the next person

I'm not saying it's okay. I'm saying we should have empathy for why it happens.

I beg to differ.
There are still genuine people who needs that help. I'll rather toil to get one genuine person and help than just spread my largesse on criminally minded people.

A netizen shared his experience with Nigeria hawkers in Abuja. He was in a generous mood and decided to give back to the society. However, what his eyes saw during the whole exercise left him feeling weak and restless.

Your decision was accurate your mother will pray for you.

Ya the ones that do banditry and kidnapping are from the sky.

Are bandits hawkers?

Would you take this advice you're dishing out here if you were in the man's shoes? Can you harden up and show generosity to someone that lied and cheated you right before your very eyes? You're the type that enables cheating and lies as a norm. The reason the country isn't getting better!!

The ethnicity of the hawkers was not mentioned, so where did you draw your conclusion from?

We know those who are dishonest in this Country. Besides, which tribe sells pear and plantain?
Have your er seen a Northern woman hawk Pear or plantain?

I'm sorry to tell you, with this mindset you are part of the problem. It doesn't matter how many people are doing wrong to validate it. What is wrong is wrong. That's how great societies are built!

Just 2 out of million hawkers.
A larger sample size is more accurate because the study gets closer to the actual population size.

You're not good at judging.

He drove within the same area and the first 2 people he chose ended up being cheats.

Are you waiting for him to sample 10000 people before concluding?

Infact, it should be the other way round, meaning he should never have met any dishonest hawker for at least 20 tries, meeting 2/2 is a whopping red flag!

You did the right thing by going home with your money. Poverty is no justification for dishonesty. Just thinking of how many customers those sellers have changed.

Saturnalia:
The emboldened statement right there is the problem of Nigerians.

I am reiterating this statement for the umpteenth time that there is a “Witchcraft Virus” in the DNA of EVERY Nigerian.

DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THEIR ACTS OF “EYE-SERVICE” KINDNESS. That act of Kindness you see them do - is simply preparing the ground for your slaughter.

I know them like the back of my hand.

The Politicians (Leaders) are even SAINTS compared to the CITIZENS (Followers).

I say this with utmost conviction, unless Nuclear Missiles are deployed to wipe out at least 95% of Nigerians; trust me - Nigeria can never get better.

Evaluate the pattern. Our Parents have been praying for Nigeria since the early 70’s. And what is the result of those Prayers again ?

RETROGRESSION, FRY PAN TO FIRE, 5 STEPS FORWARD - 500 STEPS BACKWARDS.

Why?

The Foundation of EVERY HOUSEHOLD & FAMILY TREE in NIGERIA (including EVERY STATE & FEDERAL SEAT OF POWER) were laid on WITCHCRAFT & BLACK MAGIC; And no matter how you twist it; You can never use these DIABOLICAL VICES for any POSITIVE ADVANCEMENT. NEVER!

In short, you're saying Nigerians are evil and unkind. This must mean that OP that kindly went out to give to the poor is not a Nigerian.

i'm not surprised you still find excuse to defend the devilish mindset Nigerians have..... this rubbish mindset is already becomming irredeemable if National Orientation Agency and religious body continue sleeping....
There is no justification for their Bad character.... and i keep telling people no matter how Hard the economy is, if you keep your head up high and choose to be good, you wont suffer, its a natural Law and it works.... lets be good, good Will find us

What is ridiculing in what I said. Who doesn't know that Northern business men have integrity while their Southern counterparts don't?

I have transferred USD to an Abokey bureau de change mallam like you, that I did business with for more than 2 years. This time he took the money and bailed. $2,500 was the money I tranfered to him.

I got the bank involved, called the police who start asking for exorbitant fees to track him to Sokoto..

This is serious, so so Nigerians

Oh my goodness!!! See great disappointment. It is well with this country.

Sir, I know your mother is important and you must have been taken good care of her. Do always remember the less privileged and orphanage homes too. God will enrich you and multiply your riches.

Unfortunately he met hawkers from South. Probably South Easterners. If say na Northern hawkers he met, he wouldn't have been this disappointed. Northerners are upright and have integrity.

i totally agree with you

It's still a very big shame, most social media platform have not taken a severe stand against plagiarism, and those who commit it.

He is definitely not a true Northerner. Maybe someone from Nigeria,Chad or Cameroon

fabrication.
Fake story. It's just his imagination or chasing clout

GloriousGbola:
nothing i have not seen or experienced before. sympathy for the poor in nigeria is dangerous because they see you as an alakowe sucker to be fleeced. in the right circumstances, several of them will have no problem with murdering you for your money. whatever you think you have done for them in the past does not matter.

Poco has detailed some experiences she has had in the past when people she did business with regularly thought they had an upper hand and showed colour

please shut up and stop writing trash.
Your write up is irritating to the eyes.
Same you they out of pity gave you 42 million contract you took it and ran away without delivering the Job.
Bloody hypocrite.

Mordson:
Idi0tic bastard of a thousand fathers. You've already concluded that the hawkers are from south East without any evidence. For your information, south easterners don't hawk in Abuja, it's your fellow almajiri that hawk there.

Monkey

Stop justifying evil.

Nigeria is already bad cuz of Nigerians.

Both lowly and mighty, the mentality is evil. Everyone would take every given opportunity to steal and cheat.

I don’t support helping such people, what do you think happens when a lowly thief attains wealth. He start thinking his ways are right & smart and put his hands into more wickedness. The more of such people that raise the more polluted wickedness the land becomes

You get luck , your head no cut off lol
