Street Culinary: Capturing some road-side traders of fruits in remote areas of Nigeria
Greetings friends and members of this community
Just like @irawandedy said they have roadside traders in Indonesia, here in Nigeria we have numerous traders too and if I had my ways of capturing them from the frontal view you would notice that we also have people behind who are also traders of cloth items, accessories, in movable trucks, so in front are always trader of edible substances, so passers-by can access them quickly.

The traders of stuff like fruits are mostly women and those that sell on trucks are mostly men. I would love to appreciate women for this, they are the ones that have made the market busy. I even see some women though they are working for the government but own businesses which they often supervise their activities on holidays or after work.

If you look intently at the line of traders you will see that they are all into selling fruits. They sell different kinds of fruits and one of them is cucumber which is an alkaline fruit very good for the body as it helps in digestion. I can see pineapple, watermelon, bananas, star-fruits, coconuts, and groundnuts which is a perfect combination with bananas, the major food item sold in this remote part of the town are fruits and I managed to capture them when I returned from an event with a group of choristers.
Aboki in Hausa means “my friend”, so this guy is from the northern part of Nigeria but he resides in the south, in Akwa Ibom state and what he does for a living is selling “tiger nuts”. Tiger nuts are of two types the completely dry one and the one which has swollen by absorpting water.

I can't tell the prices of most of these items because they can be purchased from any amount but it has a minimum purchase amount, I will be listing the minimum amount this item is sold, the amount depends on the quantity bought.
