How To Fetch Water For A Living

Water is one thing humans cannot live without. We all need water to survive, but Nigeria lacks proper borehole and water system, which means that there are lots of people living without water supply in their homes.

“They sell a bucket of ‘Unclean’ water for N100,” laments one man

Today on The Hustle, BollyLomo trains as a water delivery guy who fetches water and delivers to people. He also shows us how stressful it is to get water.

“Its tiring,” complains Bolly

With the recent economy meltdown in Nigeria, there is still a shortage of fuel, with long queues at petrol stations, and people still have no electricity or water in some parts of of the country and even within Lagos, have to walk long distance to fetch a bucket of water, or pay money to someone who would do the fetching.

“I make N2000($6),” says the water delivery man

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.

    Of course it is better than stealing! but someone can only take so much of
    this, before stealing becomes the more appealing option. And frankly, you
    cannot blame them if they do. imagine one of their family member fell sick,
    a months worth of wages can only put them in hospital for a few days. This
    is apart from money to buy medicine (depends hugely in the disease
    severity).

    Why does Bolly always wear that red cap? Is it a Muslim custom?
