Bloggers.
Academic session is almost ending.
Unless few private schools,no public school admits new students at the end of the session. Rather,he should wait to start afresh with others.

Nollywood actor and comedian Williams Uchemba has already taken further steps to help 10-year-old plantain hawker, Joseph, who was spotted selling plantain at night, on the street in Lagos.

The actor posted on his IG page that joseph has passed his acceptance exams and has began school.

Read below;



May God Bless Uche and His Team!!

This is a great move and so happy for the boy and God bless the guy behind this. My question though, schools will vacate in two weeks time and the academic session ends. That means he start next session which will be Sept/Oct. Hope nobody is trying to siphon money from the helper sha?

You will never see big churches doing this. Instead they will rather preach about tithes and giving to the men of God. Criminals!

God bless Williams for his kindness. I rather help people around me with my tithes than give one criminal spending his summer on an island in another country

It is just so unfortunate. I am in total support of these religious bodies being taxed. They are nothing but glorified business outfits.

It's better you keep quiet rather than confirm your ignorance.

Have you ever heard of inner city mission for children?

How many people have you helped?

I honestly think that telecom companies should give IQ tests before allowing people have access to the Internet.

Established churches like catholic,anglican,baptist do this on a regular basis.they sponsor the less priviledged in schools.its mostly the big time pentecostal churches that wont spend a dime to sponsor the poor.the will rather spend the tithes on irrevelant things....except T.B joshua.thats a man i respect.he helps the poor and maybe thats why some pentecostal churches dont like him.

Please just tryimg to understand something o.....the report says he passed the acceptance exam & and has resumed school, a private school for that mata. Abeg if am not mistaken, most schools are writing their promotional exams now (third term), some schools have even closed for the session, & summer school has not started. So biko which private school is he attending?.......im not saying he is lying o, im just trying to link facts together.
Hope one broda / sista has not collected fees from william for a school session that has ended sha

That's not true, you don't expect all the whole church to broadcast it like some of these celebrities do.

And the church alone can't help everyone in this country, you also have your own path to play.

The church have been giving out scholarships, doing empowerment programmes etc.
They do this with the tithe and offerings they collect and those sow seeds.

Some of you that are Catholics or non-Catholics can help donate for the less privileged through the society of St. Vincent De Paul in any Catholic Church near you. Please follow up with your donations.

There are many Tajus and Josephs in our country, no thanks to the government.


I agree.
I also believe in the mission of Red Cross.
I wish that apart from sending my paltry financial contribution, I can volunteer to help those caught in a battle they know nothing about

please don't say what you don't know especially about anointed men of God...churches like winners, Deeper life and Mountain of Fire and Miracles ministries especially have blessed billions of souls in their philanthropist alms giving ans scholarship to the poor which i was part of....not forgetting adding spiritual maturity and morals in the youths....please stop criticizing men of God to avoid judgement from God...thank you.

You're thinking business ahead of education when education mixed with business is more better. He can still do all you said, but he needs education at his age not business.

Actually the Church quietly does a lot in that regard. I know because I'm involved in a Ministry that handles that. Some of the street children that were sponsored are graduates now. Some are still in school. It's a wonderful experience!

cant you just pretend to be intelligent? the post has nothing to do with any blogger, its uchemba the guy sponsoring the boy that posted the story on his own instagram page and was picked up by someoneelse to be shared on nairaland. i dont know why u people behave like this, always quick to hate over nothing

so because churches dont come to social media to announce the number of kids they send to school, you suddenly come up with this myopic sentiment of yours? you actually think churches are established to please man like you?
