Story Of The Pure Water Seller. by Herbwise(m): 3:05pm On Feb 28, 2016
Interviewed 3 Pure Water Sellers In Ochanja market
Onitsha , 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 Serving
The 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 money Instead
2. Buy Pure Water To Patronize 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".
Good Afternoon Friends!!
