A Twitter user has shared photos of a child hawker he saw sleeping at a building construction site.
The child was spotted sleeping close to the bananas and groundnuts he was given to hawk.
When the boy was asked, he said he just returned from school before he was sent to hawk. He was then asked to go into the uncompleted building so he can lie down more comfortably to sleep.
“This is really wrong,” the Twitter user concluded.
Nevertheless, not every Twitter user agreed with him. Some said it’s the reality for most Nigerians and we all see children hawkers on the streets daily and dont sleep.
