Viral hawker Alax Evalsam has said people think he has money, and they harass him in the streets.

The hawker indicates that his lifestyle has essentially remained the same after he hit the limelight.

According to Alax, he still treks and enters Okada just like before when he hadn't become famous.

Alax spoke during a video interview with TikToker, King Mitchy who also asked him about his contract with Eko Hotel.

Alax, also known as 'Nawao' said he signed a contract with the hotel as an artist but said he did not receive N20 million or a car as rumoured on the internet.

Alax said those who harass him in the streets for money do it by force as they think he has money.

He said he had rented a shop to continue his business, but he lacked some things the shop needed.

When Mitchy asked him what he would use N100,000 to do if she gives it to her, Alax said he would use it buy tables and chairs for his shop.
