A pure water hawker, who also sells Jollof rice in school, among other petty tradings to make money has proudly showed off her trade on social media which she says is better than sleeping with men.

Paris Diamond, a 19-year-old Mass Commuication student of the Alvan Ikoku Federal College of Education Owerri, Imo State, took to Facebook on Sunday, to share photos of herself hawking sachet water and said that she prefers doing such jobs than sleeping with men for money.

“I sell pure water to buy text books for myself in school and sometimes use it to pay bills
I go to the market every Friday evening, Saturday morning and Sunday afternoon after church , i enjoy doing it since i do get money for one or two text books in 2 days.

“I prefer doing this than sleeping with men for money Yes I slay but guess what is pure water business. I sell almost 7 or 8 bags a day depending on the lucky day . I’m a mass communication student.
