Africa is known for different things , some people for good locations for movies , for some wildlife's, nature and to so many the fact that Africans are hardworking.
A stroll today on the Lagos Market confirmed one of the above beliefs which is the fact that Africans are hardworking. The process of buying and selling is completely different because you tend to see a busy location assigned by the government for the citizens to sell and buy. Big trucks with goods and food stuffs being offloaded by humans, children hawking still inside the market, the noisy environment, you tend to see strong and peaceful women too in Africa and the hardworking men using wheelbarrows to move goods from one seller to the next and they get paid. Pick pocketing or stealing also happens Alot too because of the overcrowded nature of the market. But above all, their food stuffs are amazing and their vegetables are beautiful and nice. Fruits is never a problem, banana, Apple, mango, oranges, pears, maize corn, paw paw are the very few of what is seen in the market. Reasons these are available in large quantities is because, they take agriculture seriously and you would so appreciate how nice they are. A whole lot of things which I haven't been able to write, reasons being that it's a whole lot of wonderful experience and can't be covered in just this post.
