A touching photo showing a young street hawker who paused her work to rest for some time has triggered emotional reactions online.

The photo, which Sannie Darra shared on X, showed the young lady with her head on her lap, apparently taking a break from the stressful nature of her work.

Saanie Daara, in a caption to the photo, urged Ghanaians to buy from street hawkers to support them financially.

"When you meet them, buy a meal or two, give them a gift – it's not just food. It's support for the trader to put food on the table of struggling families. Reflecting on how much they make, you would realize the profits are so small for the massive efforts they put in," the post read.
