MY BRICKLAYER SAID I CAN BUILD A COMFORTABLE 3BEDROOM BUNGALOW FOR 3MILLION NAIRA
=============================
Client: How much will you charge for design and supervision of this 3bedroom apartment?
Me: Okay sir, send me your email, let me send you a bill.
Client: Ha, Architect. This bill is too much now. Okay, just do the design alone, I have a very good bricklayer, you don't need to supervise it again.
Me: Okay sir. But if we supervise the project for you, I can assure you that there will be value for money, quality job delivery and we'll help you reduce wastage of materials and cost of construction to about 30%. You will enjoy regular cost projection, proper negotiations, discounts on other materials, etc
Client: My bricklayer told me I can build the house for N3m. So, leave all those things you're saying.
Me: OK sir.
(We agreed on the design bill, he paid and we delivered a perfect job. He started showing everybody what we did for him).
(3MONTHS LATER)
Client: Architect, nawa for you oh, you didn't even ask about my building project. You can't believe that the bricklayer messed up the work for me. He changed many things on the design without telling me. He has wasted my money and materials. The house is not even looking like the 3D you did for me anymore. I have sacked him and I just decided to abandon the project for now. It's really annoying.
Me: Eeyah, I'm so sorry to hear this.
Client: I really need you to come to the site and help me see what 'we' can do to solve this problem.
Me: Okay sir. But I thought he was so confident that N3million will build the house. So, what has changed?
Client: See, just forget about that guy, he stole my Cement and had a bargain with the block supplier to be taking a cut on every block supplied to the site. I noticed that the blocks we bought initially were different from the ones supplied afterwards. When I complained, he said, I shouldn't worry, the blocks are strong. This is apart from the poor jobs he did for me.
Me: Wow. This is really bad. I'll call later to fix a time to meet you.

This is a sad story:

A man in Kano went to a foodseller.
He had not eaten in 3 days.
He begged the seller for food on credit.

The foodseller said no because he already gave food to too many people on credit.

The man sat down beside the foodseller’s shop as he had nowhere else to go.

The foodseller told him he’s very sorry and he would like to help but too many people in the neighbourhood have collected food on credit and his business is sinking.

The man sat there and said nothing.

As time went on, other people came into the shop to buy foodstuff and went out- they noticed the man at the door sitting there sleeping. But nobody bothered.

Until one man came later in the day and asked the foodseller: “who is the man sitting at your door?” “Why is he there?”

Then the foodseller said “oh it’s a man who says he has not eaten for 3 days and he wants to collect food on credit but I could not give him because my business is struggling from all the credit I have already given out”.

Then the other man said: “How much is the food he wants?”

The food seller said “It’s a few cups of garri, rice and beans. Everything may be 2,000 naira”.

The other man said “Alright pack everything he wants and more. I would pay for it. Let him go home to his family and eat”.

The foodseller packed all the food and went outside to tell the man with joy that someone has paid for his food.

He saw the man still sleeping.
He tapped him to wake him up, he didn’t respond. Tapped him again, nothing.

The man had died.
He died sitting and waiting for help.

This happened just few days ago in Badawa, Kano. Some people who live in that area know this story.

The man was dead all along while people were coming in and out of the shop thinking he was sleeping.

He died hopeless. He died helpless. He died a man who his country failed.

Kano has 17 million people.
Less than 200,000 people got any form of palliative from the government.

Many people got hungry.
Many people died in their houses.
Many people starved to death from a govt that locked them in and gave no food.

An evil clueless thoughtless leadership.

If you know anyone in this period who is hungry around you and you can afford a little food or money to give him/her, please do.

Many people are walking the streets with an empty stomach, a sorry face and are dead within. It’s only a matter of time before they physically die.

Don’t be the one who walks into a store and doesn’t bother to ask about the beggar at the door.

We all have our problems yes,
But our little curiosity may save a life.

Be the one who asks “who is that person sitting there?” Be the one who helps.
And be the one who saves a life.
