This is really nice. Help has come the way of a sick Nigerian man who's homeless and stranded in Houston, United States of America.

The man's plight was brought to social media after Nigerian entertainer who is based in America, Chinomso Prince Egbuchere, spotted him laying on the ground in Houston.

The man identified as Emmanuel who hails from Mbaise in Imo state, revealed he has been in the US for 35 years now and has been suffering from various sickness including swollen legs due to diabetes.

He said he couldn't do anything about it due to financial incapability. He also claimed he has a son there who is not cooperative and that he wants to return to Nigeria but doesn't know how.

The Mbaise community in Houston after hearing of his case, mobilized themselves and rushed the homeless man to the hospital for treatment.

Efforts are also being made to find a home for the man or help him return to Nigeria if he makes up his mind among other assistance the community offered him.

Watch the videos below.

He is better off in his village farming and with roof over his head, where he can be close to his people and better manage his health condition, before his umunna have to contribute money to return his dead remains. No be everybody 'abroad' dey favour. Argue with Libya returnees.

LoL You Might Be Wrong OH, Go Back To His Village & To His People? After 35 Years? Do You Think He Still Have People There In The Village Who Wants Him Back? When Last Did He Call Them Back In The Village? He Got No Money To Even Come Back Do You Think People Would Want To WelCome Such Person And Gain Nothing In Return? He Does Not Even Have Money To Use The HospitalS Here. And With The Situation Of Things In The Country Now, Its Better For Him To Stay Back. E No Even Concern Me SeF My Own Still De My Body. Am Out

After a big accident, a man was crying: O God! I have lost my left hand?
Santa: Control yourself my friend. Don’t cry. See that man. He has lost his head. Is he crying?

Homeless and broke after 35 long years in the United States? Same country where sharp Naija boys make it one way or the other within a couple of months? What can it be other than village people determined to rubbish his destiny? Blocking his eyes, nose and ears to opportunities and numbing his body and soul from taking productive action. Condemning him to lethargy, lifelessness and terminal passivity. May God help him.

Village people would never succeed in making our lives one of failure and uselessness. Somebody shout a loud AMEN.
