‘Please Help Us Locate Her’ – Gov. Adeleke, Davido Begin Search For Physically Challenged Hawker

Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke and Nigerian singer, Davido, have launched a search for a physically challenged street hawker identified as Eniola.

Naija News reports that Eniola, who hails from Osun State, became an internet sensation after Nigerian skitmaker, Brain Jotter, spotted her hawking bottled water in Lagos traffic while on his way for a video shot.

During a conversation with Brain Jotter, the lady opened up about being a makeup artist and shared her business Instagram page for verification.

After the chat, the skitmaker transferred the sum of N400,000 to Eniola for her to set up her makeup business and stop hawking.

He also uploaded their conversation on social media alongside Eniola’s bank account details for anyone willing to assist her, and it got the attention of many Nigerians, including Davido, as he called his uncle’s attention to the trending video.

Reacting to the video via X, Adeleke showered praises on Eniola, stating she embodies the qualities that represent Osun State.

The Governor said there are plans to get in touch with Eniola and explore possibilities to assist in advancing her education or improving her makeup skills.

He wrote, “Thanks for sharing the video, Eniola’s dedication to making an honest living is inspiring. She embodies the qualities that represent Osun. I’ve directed my office to get in touch with her and explore possibilities to assist in advancing her education or improving her makeup skills.” 

While reacting to his uncle’s post on social media, Davido wrote, “Excellency !! Please, someone help us locate her.”
