Chiemezie Claire Asunugwo-Anyanwu went grocery shopping in Abuja, where she met a wheel barrow pusher (aka mai-barrow) unlike any she’d ever met before.
His name is Bashir Suleiman, a young lad who does his job with the utmost dedication.
Other than the wheel barrow, which is his means of livelihood, he looks like any young man with his spiffy dressing and well-polished footwear.
What caught Claire’s attention, apart from his outfit, was his dedication to his job.She wrote a story about him on her Facebook page.

He helped Claire with her shopping, making sure she wasn’t cheated and that she got the best prices for quality, fresh produce. He even had a phone through which he received phone calls from his customers who had come to shop at the market.
The post was received positively, with a lot of Facebook users asking how they can reach Bashir to offer assistance.
Claire went back to see him the next day due to the interest generated.
