A manโs resourcefulness has got people talking as he manually operates a makeshift bridge in town, earning his daily come.
In a video shared, the man provided his services by setting up a large plank on a drainage ditch to serve as a makeshift bridge for passersby, who were primarily ladies.
Women waited in shifts to cross the road by walking on the plank, and the man was filmed accepting payment from them.
Some chose to leap over or enter the drainage ditch instead of paying to reach their destination.
As the video went viral, some netizens claimed the man had been operating the makeshift bridge for a long time in Awka. Many speculated the drainage ditch was a private construction so passersby must pay.
While some insisted on jumping the drainage ditch rather than paying the man, others asserted the makeshift service was preferable to begging for alms on the street.
