An Elderly Woman Who Cleans A Lagos Federal Road Selflessly by Assslayer: 10:55am On Oct 13, 2017 |
The Owode Ajegunle Ikorodu road Highway is clean (especially the BRT lane) today thanks to this elderly woman, imagine how long the road is, this elderly woman does it all by herself. But sadly she's rendering the service without being paid or rewarded by the Government who owns the road or the Lagos BRT operators. Everyday while going to work i see this elderly woman cleaning the road, this makes me wonder if the government assigned any Lawma worker to clean the road at all or maybe the Lawma worker assigned to clean that very area is leaving all the work for the poor woman and at the end of the month get paid by government. The government should know of course the road won't clean itself by default, someone is doing a great job and it is this poor elderly woman. You will always find this elderly woman cleaning that everyday without being appreciated or motivated by anyone, as a young man it is a slap to my face. As an elderly woman, she is doing something beneficial to Lagos and Nigeria as a whole, but as a young man that I'm what I'm doing to Lagos and Nigeria? This Senior citizen is rendering a selfless service for over two years now without being recognized or appreciated and i feel it's time for us to appreciate her and encourage others who are rendering selfless services somewhere out there to continue. lalasticlala, mynd44 20 Likes 1 Share

Homeboiy: I feel she should be appreciated as an elderly woman rendering a selfless service, those who are observant enough who ply the road would attest to the fact this woman is doing a great job. 16 Likes 2 Shares |

Assslayer:I doubt it is a selfless service. They are called "highway managers" but we should appreciate these people cos the job is dangerous and it is also honest work 3 Likes |

Mynd44: She is not a highway manager in anyway, i have been following this woman for over two years now. Do you see her on any highway uniform, highway mangers wear reflective uniforms to signify their offices and is this the kind of broom a highway manger would use to to clean a federal road? Anyone could actually confirm the legitimacy of this piece of information, she's always on that road most times. 16 Likes 3 Shares |

Its strange! Honestly, she shouldn't be doing this. Its either she stays alone (no one to watch her) or she's mentally Ill. I won't allow my family member do this daily. If it were a one-time community project, great but taking daily risky without proper safety measures for over 2 years is not commendable but dangerous. She needs help! 1 Like 1 Share |

Is this how we will be looking? Is this how we will be looking? When our future is getting exchanged for a tin of milk and one mudu of garri? When women old enough to be grandmothers, who should be sitting at home with their grand babies, dress up in faded mismatched Ankara outfit and sing in the sun for a man young enough to be their son in exchange for 200 naira? Is this how we will be looking? When corruption has become corrupted that it is the corrupt that wants to fight corruption? When justice gets stifled and suffocated with the smell of naira notes or dollars as the ‘giver’ wishes? Where the National cake is shared and the crumbs is left for us to share? When the poor man who stole bread and a small bag of semo is burnt to death and the hungry boy who stole chicken is handed a death sentence? Is this how we will be looking? When old cargoes are still on the queue to rule the country before they take their last breath? Suffocating the young, honest ones who have the interest of the people at heart? Buying people’s conscience and sense of reasoning with contracts and ministerial appointments? Read more http://kanzahsays.com/is-this-how-we-will-be-looking/ 2 Likes 1 Share |

I wish Nairaland had a dedicated philanthropy section where we can donate to selfless people like this, and to other noble causes. However, what this woman is doing is VERY dangerous. She has no reflective jacket, no safety shoes and the way she is bending her back will lead to severe back issues in the very near future. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

That old woman needs to get off from that road. It's risky to her life and other road users. State governments should get mechanical street sweepers as below. It not that expensive. 2 Likes 1 Share
