Akin Alabi, Nairabet CEO and House Of Reps Member-elect has stated that the man who rejected a house offer for a borehole in his community didn't make a wise decision.Recall that it was reported earlier today that a gateman has rejected a house offer as a parting gift from his boss whom he served for 25 years. He, instead, requested that a borehole be sunk for his community which he said lacked water.

Akin Alabi who reacted to report admitted that it was selfless, but however stated that it was not a wise decision because he could have collected the house, sell it and sink multiple boreholes. He wrote;

He doesn't want to feel like a king by having the community knock on his gates for water. How many men today would reject such? For the gateman to have served his oga consistently for 25 years shows unflinching loyalty. How many gatemen ever get a retirement package from their oga?

If we have 50 of such men left, Nigeria would be a better place and not where naira Marley gives economics of money circulation.

He should and he will from any of different possibilities, including the beneficiaries of the borehole that has become necessary due to governors and LGA chairmen abandoning their responsibility to provide tap water to the people as it was in the past.
Many thanks for your humanity-inspired thoughts. Bravo!
His story reminds me of that juju song where the man chose patience and finally got wealth, children and health plus long life. Was that Obey or Sunny who sang it

PureMind2:
I think the man just make great mistake for the borehole to last longer why not build the house and extend the borehole in front of your house to serve all the community rather than telling him not to build a house for u am sure the house will come with water anyway

Akin Alabi should please shút the fúck up.

He has no idea how many lives that his betting company ruined. I guess he's baffled and shocked that someone out there choose humanity over monetary gain.

On paper his idea is a good theory but why wait any longer when the food has already been cooked?!

Let him sit still and watch. This man will get a house.

It's not everyone that's obsessed with making millions, building mansions and having many cars,

some are just contented with having a roof over their heads and food in their plates.

Many Northerners like this man exist, the house people the are not related to, feed them and even support 'em financially.

Na when i dey with Hausa people i know say their worldview dey very different from our people own

Succinctly put! I shivered when listening to the "economic analysis" of a fraudster endorsed by his fellow criminals. Sad to say this country is as good as dead

Most times, Nigerians (both rich and poor) sound smart but they really ain't that intelligent.

How would you sell the house to people that cannot even build houses made of blocks? People that struggle daily to survive? How many millionaires do you think you will find in that village? Do you think water ain't that scarce that he decided to help his community?

Lot of idiots can come online and talk sh!t. I can bet 100k that Akin Alabi have never visited a typical Northern village. Where you travel on a bike for hours, no utility poles(Nepa pole), no network, no pure water etc.



People need to travel more and do more volunteering works instead sitting in a room of AC and typing bullcrap from a PC or Android phones.

miketayo:
He could have chosen the house.. who builds house without borehole? The community can always come in to fetch water in his place

fyneguy:
I understand Alabi's point.

The Indian man should have considered doing more than the borehole, since it was cheaper than the house.

dominique:
Seems you don't know much about the core north especially the rural parts, they're not big on real estate. They hardly but property there like we do in south.
