A Condemn Gadget Dealer On The Grind - PhotoFeed Contest Portrait Photography 162

It's become a trend in my city and across the country to see young guys at every corner with their pre-recorded speakers blasting

Condemn condemn, condemn phone, condemn computer, we're buying it in a good price... 😂

You can't escape it, they're everywhere - streets, markets, bus stations, name it. You wake up in the morning, and the next thing you hear is "condemn condemn!" Gosh!
Leaving your house for the bus stop, you might meet three or more of these "condemn" hawkers on the way.

I really do not understand this sudden craze of "condemn this and that." Lol.

It's annoying, funny, and a bit baffling all at once. I understand that they're trying to make a living, but is there no other way to go about it other than constituting a nuisance and causing noise pollution? Again, how many condemned phones do they need to even buy?!

The funny thing is that when you look at these guys, you'd wonder how much they'd even pay for the items. I recall someone saying that one of them offered to pay him ₦200 for his condemned phone. Imagine that. 🤣 They claim "big companies are buying it in a good price", yet they can't offer a fair deal.

I've been wanting to write about this for a while now, but haven't been able to do so because I needed the right photo to back up the story.

Fortunately, on Sunday, I got lucky. In fact, I went full-on sneaky photography, capturing one of the "condemn condemn buyers" somewhere along the Railway road by Ama Ogbonna. He was coming towards me, totally unaware I was capturing him.

Eish! He'd be surprised if he finds out that I did.


I really pulled off a sneaky capture here. Hehehe
