God is good, i was just comparing Mr Obuh of now with the Mr Obuh of then, God be praised. The God of Isaac is really our Provider.

Just wonderful wonderful wonderful!! The pictures of the shop and Mr.Obuh and Ifyalways are great! I wish the Obuhs the best of luck!

Wow wow wow!!! This is a story that they'll tell generations to come. Thank you all so very much for your selfless efforts.

Funny enough I was thinking about this family. How they lived under the bridge for 2 years and people passed them by for a whole 2 years and nobody did anything to help them? Even the Govt? Quite shameful. Thanks to the media who brought this to light and more thanks to NLders who have shown this family love, love and more love.
Big thanks to r231, OAM4J, Ifyalways, OlowoTee, Jarus, Yamakuza. You all are great. Ify, you're amazingly great. Thank you so much.

On a lighter note, see as Mr Obuh deh shine o. The swagger no easy men grin So happy for them. Such a relief and new life. grin

Well done guys.
Re: Man Raises Family Under Lagos Bridge by AjanleKoko: 3:00pm On Dec 08, 2011
Great stuff.
I think Mr Ibuh should be sponsored on some of those entrepreneurship workshops.
Now that he's on his feet, he needs to build a network of sorts. Dunno if anybody has any suggestions?
Re: Man Raises Family Under Lagos Bridge by yamakuza: 4:20pm On Dec 08, 2011
^ he seriously needs it.

Maybe something from Fate Foundation?

Unfortunately, distance and time are not on his side, as he's the one manning the store.

Unless someone knows a weekend program near him, ikeja perhaps?

Ikeja is kuku the home to all manner of trainings.
As this is Nairaland, I was thinking/hoping someone could volunteer him a free slot?

Its been close to 2 weeks that I neither visited nor checked on the Obuhs personally though I've had people checking on them.

I'm driving down to their shop as I type and ofcourse not empty handed.We decided to boost their sales this season by getting them whats in vogue now for sales. . .so we got them xmass hats,kiddies wristwatch,games,kiddies BB,eyeglasses,knock outs,water gun etc.15K was made avaialable yesterday by Jarus for that.

Would take pictures as soon as i get there. . .possibly with me and Monday on maska and clutching our water guns.lol

We currently don't have a website as we are still kinda operating under an unstructured but highly effective mode.
We are all volunteers coming together to help alleviate needy people from poverty
Your donations/moral support to the cause will be well received
