Description:
Abel is a trader in bones. He purchases off-cuts of bones with shreds of meat still attached to them. He repackages the bones and sells it fora profit. He has managed to build a three roomed house off his trade. He sees it as a service to the community and being able to ensure the poorest of the poor have something nice to eat. His parting words to me, "whatever you do, do it with passion." He is a not merely a trader in off-cut meat and bones; he is a purveyor of hopes and dreams.
