Meet Musa Usman, The Gateman Who Rejected House Offer For Borehole In Jigawa by ChangeIsCostant(op): 1:43pm On Apr 25, 2019
Here are pictures of the gatemen who has been labelled a hero by Nigerians following his selfless gesture towards his community in Birniwa local government area of Jigawa state.

It was gathered that the gateman identified as Musa Usman (in light blue attire) had served his Indian boss, Mr. V. Verghese, for 25 years and he was planning to leave his job to finally spend time with his family in Giljimmi, a Fulani settlement in Jigawa state.

To appreciate Usman’s services, Verghese decided to build a house for him. However, the offer was turned down. Instead, the kind gateman asked his boss to build a borehole for his community because there was shortage of water in his village and people had to go a long distance in search of clean water.

Usman who reportedly lives in a thatched house in his village - is said to have expressed no regret at turning down the offer of a new house just so his people can have clean water to drink.

Eyah, What a "good" day for our democracy.

I was expecting to see him and his family together in this joyous moment.

Anyway, he's better than the kunù guzzling drunkard of a president.

I hope the community will be able to maintain it.
I will also expect the community to do a crowd funding to build him a house, people can donate and they will provide free labour

Good day for democracy?

Its actually a sad day for democracy or whatever form of name we decide to call our kind of ill-governance.

Why should a citizen have to choose between his personal comfort and the wellbeing of his community? Nothing screams FAILURE more than this narrative. Of course they don't care and they won't change.

Yet they dish out national awards to politicians who steal Nigeria dry. Blessed is he who feeds his neighbour when he's hungry, for his reward is divinely.

Some others would have sunk the borehole in their compound and sold water to the community!
