Hawker overjoyed after man gifted him N100k

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian hawker had celebrated after a man gifted him N100k.

The kind man identified as Marksman Chinedu Ijiomah gave N100k cash to the handkerchief hawker who has been in the business for 7 years.

In a Facebook post on his verified page, Marksman said he had stepped out that day seeking to support the businesses of hustlers.

The handkerchief seller happened to be one of the lucky beneficiaries. This is as the businessman had also showed similar kind gestures to a grandma who is a trader and a shoe cobbler.
