How To Be A Street Hawker In Lagos Traffic

One of the most annoying things about living in Lagos is the annoying Traffic Jam one has to go through everyday. But some people depend on Lagos traffic to do their shopping since there are vendors who sell close to anything in traffic, by moving from car to car.

“In Lagos traffic you find the most un-orthodox things,” says Bolly

Today on The Hustle, BollyLomo decides to experience what it feels like to be a street vendor. He sells coconut chips, rat poison, rat gum and even worked as a windscreen wiper.

“If motor should jam you, you’re dead,”

According to one of the sellers, it could take up to eight hours a day to finish selling a boy of coconut chips or gala.

“This has been stressful, hectic, tiring,” says Bolly at the end of his hustle

The Hustle helps us appreciate the little menial Lagos jobs people do for little income.

Also you can follow bolly on Instagram – @bollylomo and @ItsBollyLomo on Twitter and let him know where to go next for The Hustle.

Watch and enjoy!

    our country should render help financially and create job opportunities for
    the pple, it’s not looking nice on the motorway selling things,i am not
    blaming the sellers cos,i know if there is any better means they will not
    do it. many pple want to go to school, to work ,to learn apprentice make
    these things easy. Many are doing that due to salaries not been paid to
    their parents. Many thing’s needs to amend in our country.

    payed another example u have to be at least financially ok for u to get
    girlfriend so many things leads to the problem of our country not only the
    gov but the citizens as well.a man promising a lady I will buy u house,car
    just to get the lady come on why everything about us is money.the gov and
    the citizens most change if we expect something good from Nigeria. I can’t
    just say all.
