EXCERPT FROM THE STUDY
Hawking is not a good thing on the health of a child in particular and adult in general, be it in schools, motor-parks, stadium etc. In order to do early sales before other hawkers come out, these children will not take their birth in the morning before leaving to sale and they will do this for quite a good number of days or weeks and this will results body odour and skin infection on the child(ren) (McGhie 1982). Some of these children especially those living with their mistresses, sometimes they will not eat or they will eat once a day which will not be good to their health. As a growing children (hawkers) they need all the classes of food for growth and development of their body. But where all these nutrients are denied to them, their immune system will become low and it will predispose them to communicable diseases.
