Governor Babatunde Fashola has commended the skills and enterprise of students who engage in traffic trading stating that it takes high level of mental coordination and expertise to trade in the traffic without hazards.
He said; "I have travelled to many places in the world, but I have not seen where youths trading on the streets run after vehicles with their wares on their heads without falling. The same person who gives change to a buyer is at the same time doing mental sums.
"If you observe the kind of skill level, flexibility and adaptability that is required to carry out those functions, I don't know how many of us can do it. Let nobody come and tell me that Nigerians are not skillful. Let not anybody tell me that they are not enterprising. If that is not a display of skill and enterprise, I do not know what it is.
