There are lots of good people who are ready to help and there are bad people too whose job is to beg around Lagos without having problems making it difficult to help the needy.
This is not encouraging at all,a graduate with MSc finding it difficult to eat twice a day.

sometimes I lose interest in reading,I just have to summon courage.

May God bless the wealthy man but it'll be more better if he had link him with a good job.where the job dey sef?

Wish I could also meet someone to assist me with my tuition fee,exam is just a week away and am having #24,000 with no hopes of getting the remaining balance
God send me a helper. embarassed

Men, we are in the same situation o. If I hold that kind 250k now, I no go kill myself looking for work again as I can employ myself right away even as I am still in school. But where 5k sef not to talk of 250k? My school fees of N38k is fast approaching. My helpers o, may God lead you to my location...amen.

just type and 'friend' Jude Idada on facebook and be amazed at the dexterity with which Jude writes and presents his day to day experience on Lagos roads. He is a very good writer.

Don't always conclude like that. There are rich people in this country whom 250k is not really a big deal to them. I'm sure if you dash person N5, e no go scratch ur pocket at all. That is what 250k is to some people.

It is a good thing you have learnt to read and write.
Please also learn to understand what you read. It is very very important.

If this was an examination, you simply failed the comprehension passage!

There you go screaming the lecturer is a sadist, oooo he wants to sleep with me for grades, haaaa I bought his text books na, eeeeh that is how is use to do undecided


Alright, help me comprehend. You can also insert a quote.

ChangeIsCostant:

...

The interesting part is that the good Samaritan also told his wealthy friend about the man he met on the bus and how he is struggling to take care of his family with two jobs. His friend transferred N250,000 to the man after speaking with him on the phone.

...

From what I read earlier and as quoted above, the narrator told his friend about the man (Security Guard), then his friend phoned him and transferred N250k to his bank account.

For me, that's quite weird.

The OP did a very good thing, helping those in need.

But I would have loved to meet the Master's degree holder and give him career advice.

I lost my job with one of the Telecommunications giant sometimes in 2009. I engaged in many odd jobs before someone introduced me to a security job. I initially rejected it but later accepted it grudgingly. But I didn't stop there. I asked for career advice from my managers and engaged in making myself a Certified Security Professional. I've done many professional certifications and some notable professional membership registration namely

Advanced Diploma Security Operations and Management (HRDC) Unilag
The UK Health Safety and Environment Level 1-3
Introduction to cybersecurity, Military Ethics, Forensic Science and Criminal Justice (Free online courses from future learn)

Member American Society for Industrial Security ASIS (World regulatory body for security professionals)
International Institute for Safety and Risk Management (Specialist member)
Nigerian Institute of Security (Professional member)
Project Management Institute (Associate member) just to mention few.

Even if fate turns you into a security guard, get yourself certified and you will realize that there is good money in security work (only for the certified ones).

Hope OP can advise the security guy to go for certifications in security and it's just a matter of time before he hits it big.

Im moved by this act of generosity.

Now this is a real good samaritan. Helped the guy without taking pictures and even sharing his story with a friend who probably didnt see his picture but called to transfer some cash.

I pray for this grace every morning to be able to move around the street helping people in dare need. God help me to be a blessing to others.

Omo, guys dey suffer for this country. Suffering is real, poverty is the worst sickness.

God will perfect this for you. He said He will. And when He finally does this, will you give Him thanks? Remember all thanks (from those people you help) belong to Him not you. Don't take my glory says the Lord of Host.
