He came and in their usual habit touched me, I shouted at him not to touch me again,the more angrier i became the more persistent he turned,then I was forced to make friend with him. Here's our conversation
Me: what's your name
He: Ibrahim
Me: Where's your mummy
He: Niger republic
Me: Where do you live
He: Pointed towards the bridge
Me: What do you want
He: Biscuit, gala,apple,pure water
His request got me laughing, he wants virtually all that was hawked.
He must have trusted me, he dropped his #10 with me to go hustle for another, he came again to drop it,another #50 and he was giving me, I added my own #50 and handed it over to him and he smiled wide.
He went and came back to say hello, I asked if he has eaten and he said no, I have food with me so I told him to go bring plate, confused and was looking at me before he gathered courage to ask how come I have food in my bag,he requested to see it and someone came to his rescue to give him a plastic bag for d food,he was glad and kept jumping.
After sometime, another girl came with him and in a short while we became friends too,seeing my phone she asked if I was snapping her and said I can snap her,then the photo shooting began,below is their pictures.
Ibrahim is a cool and friendly guy, I wish he can just go to school but he was obviously not interested.
