A viral disabled water hawker, identified as Eniola, has finally confessed that he is indeed a male and not the woman he has been portraying himself to be.
Eniola, who is said to be an indigene of Osun State, first became a trending topic a few days ago after a video of him meeting with popular skitmaker Brain Jotter while hawking made it to the internet.
In the video, he introduces himself as a makeup artist who later resorted to hawking on the street for survival.
Moved by his story, Brain Jotter gave him a sum of 400,000 naira to return to his makeup business and stop street hawking.
However, in a new turn of events, Brain Jotter recently took to social media to reveal that Eniola is a scammer and crossdresser.
According to him, some well-meaning Nigerians have once assisted Eniola with a sum of $600,000 in the past, only for him to return to the street.
Brain Jotter said, “If I tell you say I no tire, I dey lie. Just negodu. Bro deceived us all. Some people helped him with over N600k before. He Lied! He is a man.”
Reacting to the accusation of pretending to be a man by his benefactor, Eniola, in a now-trending Instagram video, he confirmed the development and confessed to being a man.
According to him, he is a man and only decided to dress like a woman so that people could help him.
He said, “I, Eniola, am a man. I’m dressing like a woman because it favors me. I’m dressing like a woman, so I could get help. Ever since I’ve been suffering, who has helped me? I’m a man.”

Davido was criticized for halting plans to help disabled hawker
Africanglitz earlier reported that the singer appeared to have dropped interest in assisting a viral street hawker who made headlines.
The reason for Davido’s action is not far from reports claiming the hawker who poses as a girl is a boy named Sultan.
In a tweet via his X account, Davido, who had called on his uncle, Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State, to assist the hawker, now told him to abort the mission.
