Am a poliomyelitis victim.
Yes, I am but I survived
Being physically challenged at the age of 3 has not been easy but Gods grace has been sufficient.
At age 3 my life changed when I was diagnosed with poliomyelitis, my Father was an average Nigerian who struggle to make ends meet for his family, he and my mom tried all they could medically and spiritually but faced a lot of limitations.
My father upon being helpless made a decision that even if I can't walk again with my legs I will get a good and better life like everyone who can walk with their legs.
He took upon himself that he will give me the best education that I deserve.
Being unable to walk with my two legs without the help of my crutches has been really really painful, seeing your pairs engage in the sport you like most and the only thing you can do is watch.
Depression comes in but Daddy and mummy was always there to cheer me up
During my secondary school days we had an inter-house sport,I couldn't wear my sport wear because I was shy & ashamed of myself but Daddy was there to encourage me.After secondary school I lost my Dad.
it downed on me that I had to pull myself together and be the man my father wants to be the man my father wants me to be.
No financial help to continue schooling and all the schools I had in my didn't admit me, I had to wait for good 6 years before I finally gained admission into federal polytechnic ilaro,in Ogun state where I had my National Diploma (ND) and Higher National
Diploma(HND) both Computer Science
Today I finished my NYSC program, I should be happy, that I accomplished my dream and my father's but I must tell you am really depressed and suicide thought have began to set in after I collected my last allowee.
I ask myself "TIMI WHAT NEXT" because no more allowee means no food on the table and going back to be a beggar that most polio victims are is not what I want for my life or plan to do after going through the pain of educating myself. I don't want to die neither do I want to beg
To Nigerians reading this,tweetlebs,celebrities and everyone.
PLEASE I NEED A JOB
PLEASE I NEED A JOB
PLEASE I NEED A JOB
And also I have quite a number of business idea that can fetch me money to put food on the table
Please don't just read, please retweet my helper might be on
on your TL
I want a good life, I DONT WANT TO DIE

It's well. You are a survivor... Don't let your disability weigh you down.

God will help him get a job. Some people in that condition have turned beggars. But, this guy refused to be limited.

Hm.

My advice to him Is this

[b]Don't waste your time looking for white collar jobs. You have a better chance of becoming a sole proprietor or entrepreneur than having a government job. And again, the government salary payment isn't stable. Even able bodied Nigerians no see white collar job collect.[\b]

Job is waiting for you Insha Allah

What a touching a story.I pray God sends help to you soon in Jesus name

Fine guy

Stories like this touch me.

Be strong & prayerful!

When abled bodied men and women are still looking for that illusive jobs.

You are here looking for shortcuts.

It is well! God will help you to find a job!

Nigeria is a really tough country to live in.

You suffer to go through school and get a degree.

You suffer to find work after graduation and after the compulsory federal government NYSC Scheme.

Must all of us run to overseas countries before we accomplish our life dreams?

no disability in ability

Who else experienced that stupid cloudfare host error something while commenting on this post?

Seun should take care of it. Its getting worse

Poor guy. Polio could have been eradicated in Nigeria over 20 years ago if not for a certain illiterate and backward region of the country.
At a time they were even kidnapping and killing health care practitioners who came to offer vaccination against polio.

As your name implies, TheOdd1sOut. Did u nt read the part that says he has business ideas. I wonder why some people think with their anus and type with their left toes. Think, think and think before u quote or revert me.

bros bikonu swerve... I said he shouldn't go for government job. You should think before you type and interpreted the surface of a statement only.
Stupid troll

Hello Timi, I must say congratulations on your graduation and passing out from NYSC. Glory be to God. I also want to comment on some of the things you wrote about.

You have already scaled the hurdles and to allow suicidal thoughts to be scaling through your mind at this time is uncalled for. You are already a graduate of Computer studies and that shows you already have what it takes to be an entrepreneur. Also think of employing people and not people who would employ you.

You are intelligent and it is only a few things that you cannot do because of your disability but remember there is ability in disability.
Look inwardly and you will see many potentials in your self as a graduate of computer studies. You can also delve into agriculture as in fish farming, snail farming amongst other things etc Check out the videos from Mr. Fish and Fish academy on YouTube. Please rebuke the suicidal thought and think deeply on all I have mentioned. God's grace.
