According to Mercy, the girl is an SS3 student who trained herself in school via her hawking business.
On that fateful day, the girl was hawking, despite the rain, when she encountered the male customer who would gift her cash.
SS3 hawker gets help from her customer
The man was haggling about the price of her garden eggs with the SS3 girl when he learnt hawking is her means of livelihood. Moved by what he heard, the man enquired about her school fees and gave her N20k of the N50k she said it cost.
His kind action triggered the girl to kneel in the rain. After some seconds, she went into the shop and knelt before the man to show gratitude.
Mercy, who spoke in Igbo language, hailed the man for showing kindness to the girl without taking advantage of her.
She seized the opportunity to encourage people to be diligent in whatever they find themselves doing.

Lady gifts cash to elderly hawker
Meanwhile, Fox Nigeria previously reported that an elderly hawker was surprised with cash by a lady.
In a video that was shared on Instagram by @jojooflele, the elderly hawker was seen standing beside her bags of water when the lady approached her.
She asked her what it would take to put a smile on her face and subsequently offered to give the hawker N10k after she noticed she was speechless.
This kind gesture stunned the elderly vendor who immediately began to shower praises and blessings on the giver.
