A Nigerian man has expressed outrage after spotting a coconut seller, commonly referred to as an Aboki, washing coconuts inside dirty drainage water before putting them up for sale.
The incident was shared in a video on TikTok, where the vendor is seen rinsing the coconuts in visibly contaminated gutter water on a street.
He then places the wet coconuts back on display, ready for unsuspecting buyers.
The man who witnessed the act confronted the vendor in frustration, calling out the unhygienic behavior.
In his words: “Aboki, why you dey do like this? You dey wash am for water, still give our people make them chop. You dey wash am for gutter, you come still go sell am to people for front.”
The video has since gone viral, sparking widespread reactions online as many users took to the comment section to condemn the act and express concern over food safety practices.
