Dr. H2O, a well-known young Nigerian who recently gained fame after a video of him skillfully selling Aquafina bottled water to bus passengers went viral, has disclosed his true age.
He confirmed that he began selling four years ago when he was in SS1, a decision he made to support his education after his father’s passing when he was in JS2.
In an exclusive interview, he reiterated his strong desire for education, explaining that he entered the vending business to raise money for his school fees.
His statement: “I started hawking four years ago when I was in SS1 to support my education after losing my father when I was in JS2. I did everything possible to send myself to school.”
Many concerned Nigerians have expressed their thoughts on the statement made by the popular bottled water seller. Here are some reactions:
@Jichangwook’s wife: “Omo God should lift him higher.”
@DECEPSHUN: “21 years old? That’s a lie, the guy looks like he’s almost 30.”
@Yettyalayande: “21 years old looks like 30 years old. I’m happy that God finally answered your prayer.”
@Chris: “21 years old? No way, poverty has made this guy look much older than his age.”
@IMISIOLUWA D TAILOR: “I’m older than him. I thought he was older than his appearance. Poverty is responsible for this.”
