Humanity First by DrSadikMagaji(m): 4:34pm On Feb 11, 2016
I saw something and I thought of sharing it with you people, a piece of work that tallies with our current situation especially here in the North.

I took my time to interview 3 Pure Water Sellers, And
According To Them: Sometimes, It Takes About 6 Hours To
Sell 20 Sachets Of Water Which Amounts To A Total Of N200
(1Dollar).
From The N200, The Profit Is Only About N40 As The Pure
Water Sellers Have To Pay The Wholesalers Their Money Back
As Well As Cover The Price For Ice Block Which Was Used To
Cool The Water.
The Long And Short Of It Is That Some Of Them Make Only
N40 In 6 Hours Of Hustling Under The Hot Sun, Risking Their
Lives On Major Express Roads And Always At The Mercy Of
The Environmental Protection Board Who Whip Them With
Cane When Caught; Burst Their Water Sachets To The Ground
And Fine Them N5,000.
As If That Isn't Bad Enough, When Passengers And Drivers
Reach The Traffic Stops, They Prefer To Dash N100, N200 Or
Even N500 To Beggars And Fake Sufferers Who Sometimes
Make About N1,500 A Day Doing Nothing But Begging, Leaving
Them Richer, Luckier And Safer Than The Pure Water Sellers
Who Are Young Entrepreneurs ServingThe Larger Community
With Their Trade, And Trying To Make Ends Meet.
So When Next You Are At A Traffic Stop, Please:

1. Dash The Pure Water Seller Instead
2. Buy Pure Water To Patronise Them And If The Change Is
(N10, Or Even N20, You Can Leave It With Them)
3. Say Something Nice To Them. Greet Them, Encourage
Them.
4. Slow Down, Don't Knock Them Down.
5. Even If You Wont Buy The Pure Water, If They Ask You To
Buy, Rather Than Ignoring Them And Facing Front As If They
Are Not Humans, You Can Look At Them, Smile And Say
"Thank You"...
