Better late than never. r231 fwd the account details in Nigeria pls. Will ask someone to transfer on Wednesday.

Well done guys! Cried my eyes out. After seeing the pictures I understood what Queenafric meant by "worryingly thin". That's skin n bone right there!

Can't even praise you guys enough. TeHN, you guys are terrific. Queenafric, may God remember you too. To all that contributed, God is handling your case IJN.

Like, what makes y'all think this individual is actually Linda?  cheesy
Well, poster, Linda has no influence - neither negative nor +ive - on me. . . .Only a select few are potent enough to.

Even if it's not Linda herself she'll very well get the message through her people on NL.

Sorry to ask a few. . .

Why didn't her doctors offer her surgery all these years? Why did they ask her to go abroad and now calling her back for surgeries? Are they competent or they just want to try? She's had this condition for 4 years and it's only now they feel they can help her. . . notsurewhattomakeofthis

Family / Re: Is It Okay For My Husband To Live With My Younger Sister? by Radiant(f): 4:36pm On Dec 11, 2011
Lol. . .incomplete gist

It depends on the kind of husband you have and the kind of sister you have. It's obvious you have your suspicions. If you don't have your suspicions then I don't see why you should be worried.

On the other hand, how about your husband not letting you to transfer because he doesn't trust youl? And he insists you both remain in the same city? You don't trust him but you expect him to trust you? If you think your husband is a cheat then why leave him in the first instance? Your family get as e be madam. . sorry

Good luck. . smiley

OAM4J:

I like the "Big Smiles Network"

I think it describes our objective - putting smiles on people faces

can we modify it to Big Smiles Charity Network? Or we don't need to reflect 'charity' in the naming?

Or perhaps, Big Smiles Charity?
Nairaland / General / Re: Nairaland Charity Organisation- E-Helpers Network by Radiant(f): 2:05am On Dec 11, 2011
You guys on ground know better. If you think Monday [/b]and his family should be monitored then so be it. It's all for their good. I don't believe we're doing any harm to them after all.
Well done for all your efforts and patience. Great team! cool

As for the name, what about [b]Online Rescue Brigade
? Nairaland Rescue Brigade ? grin Honestly, I can't think of a name. I wish we can use the current name "Nairaland Charity Organisation" or something with Nairaland. However, the reason [b]Siena [/b]gave about the name sending the wrong message to 'non NLders' makes sense though.

More suggestions guys.

OAM4J:

I take exception to your choice of word in the in the bold. But we shall let it pass.

Thanks for all the issues you raised. They are well noted and the team is working on them.

OAM4J, you know I'm your (Organisers) biggest supporter. I believe the group who handled the Obuh's affairs. You guys are terrific and I believe every step you took to help the Obuhs. I don't doubt any aspect so far.

However, what we planned for the Obuhs should be done for them. Is it their fault that people contributed to relieve them? It's their luck. Let's complete this project and once concluded we move to the next.

I'm sorry I used the word scam. I didn't mean you're trying to scam us. I said it's beginning to look like. . .I hope you guys understand.

Great team you are wink
Nairaland / General / Re: Nairaland Charity Organisation- E-Helpers Network by Radiant(f): 5:39pm On Dec 10, 2011
First of all, the issue of partnering with an NGO should be waved aside. It's always messy. Let us just do things OUR own way. We've done very well so far. NGO's have enough sponsors.

ifyalways:

@Afam4ever and Radiant,I understand where you guys are coming from in regards to giving Mr Obuh every dime raised for him but i've got to say this:

As it is now,the Obuh's family is good to go and have everything they need to make a success out of their lives.What happens or would it amount to anything to hand them raw cash and watch them mis-manage it?We have not washed our hands off them,we'd be monitoring them and ready to offer them the big brother lending hands when needed in future.We can't baby feed the Obuhs forever,it won't even help them,now is the time for Monday to rise as a man and take care of his family,that way he'd learn to be responsible.

I still suggest that we look for another family/individual that we can help build.The challenge has been thrown open(not for NGO'S) to every nlder to bring forward any geniue case of someone/family that are in dire need.Rather than keeping money(the bal from the Obuh's) we can as well help uplift another family.

In other words, the Obuhs are made already? Why didn't we set a target amount and once we hit it tell people to stop donating? We kept welcoming donations for the Obuhs and now you say we keep their money for when again? There's nothing like helping in the future. They need all that money donated. Not because they have a roof over their head and a shop then ohh they're sorted. This is a family not just one person. The new baby is coming, you said the lady can't do much 'cause of her hearing issues. So it means that the shop is their only source of income.(As it is now) They need to sort out other issue that we probably don't know about. May be they're even owing people money. Or you think it's only the pure water business that kept them alive for 2 years? And many other problems and even health issues we know nothing about.

We are not spoiling them if that's what you're thinking. It's God's favour on them. People have been touched by their story and donated money. You can't decide to keep their money. It is their money either you agree or not. It's almost beginning to look like scam. You ask people to donate towards one thing and then you turn around and tell them you'll use the money for another? I don't think this will encourage people to give in the future.
It's always good to set targets and once target is met to stop. You shouldn't welcome more donations for one thing and don't use it at the end of the day.

I don't understand what you guys mean by "monitoring" them. Like if they don't do well what will do We've done our bit. What they decide to do is totally up to them. We can only wish them the best.

Menek, wasn't "monitored". Yet he's doing well enough today to join in helping this family.

It's their blessing please. Let's give them their money. This is how God embarrasses us with blessings. This is their testimony.

My 2p as usual. If you guys think otherwise, good luck.
Family / Re: Man Raises Family Under Lagos Bridge by Radiant(f): 1:10am On Dec 08, 2011
Wow wow wow!!! This is a story that they'll tell generations to come. Thank you all so very much for your selfless efforts.

Funny enough I was thinking about this family. How they lived under the bridge for 2 years and people passed them by for a whole 2 years and nobody did anything to help them? Even the Govt? Quite shameful. Thanks to the media who brought this to light and more thanks to NLders who have shown this family love, love and more love.
Big thanks to r231, OAM4J, Ifyalways, OlowoTee, Jarus, Yamakuza. You all are great. Ify, you're amazingly great. Thank you so much.

On a lighter note, see as Mr Obuh deh shine o. The swagger no easy men grin So happy for them. Such a relief and new life. grin

Freiburger:

I also share the same opinion, so depending on how the nature of the cases may look like, we can then assign or recruit right?

Precisely. Let's get the ball rolling and grow as we go.

OAM4J:

Where/which area are u based Radiant? Was waiting for you to also show interest. I was going to suggest your name before now.

Yea, I'm in the UK. I think 9/10 people will do a great job to be honest. You guys already pulled off a massive breakthrough with barely 3 'field workers'. The important thing is to have committed people like the group who dealt with the Obuh's. A few dedicated and honest people will achieve great results. And again it's always easier to trust a few people.
We can set up the committee and introduce them officially to NLders and off we start! Look for cases to present and before you know it we're in full swing.

All the best guys. Great job. smiley
Nairaland / General / Re: Nairaland Charity Organisation- E-Helpers Network by Radiant(f): 11:45pm On Dec 07, 2011
Hello again  smiley

Guys, let's not rush things, yet. I would suggest we start off in Lagos since most of the Volunteers are based in Lagos. There's no need to set up 'offices' in different locations. There's always a starting point in every thing we do in life and this is no different. We can always expand later when things go well. For now I think Lagos is okay.

I'm interested in the Org but not sure where I can fit. Otherwise, I'm happy to chip in my 2p every now and then like everyone  smiley

As for the Obuh's money still in 'our custody' I think we should keep their money and give it to them when the wife puts to bed. I don't support keeping their money and used for other cases. The money was donated towards relieving the plight of the Obuh's and so I think the money should go to them.

Great job as usual  cool

Hmm, na waoh! So this is how the story goes. I can remembered, I once saw this topic but never care to open it, thinkin he is one irresponsible fellow that never planned well and ended up in a mess until some one drawn my attention to it.
Hmm! Since I can feed today, I should be able to do something too. OAM4J, I will shoot u a mail later. God bless all that hav help that family

Menek is this you? Oh thank you God! How will God not continue to bless you? You are a star! You've been blessed to be a blessing. I'm so happy for you dear. Without saying much I can tell you are doing really well. God bless your kind heart. . cheesy Good to see you cool

From pit to palace  cheesy

You guys don't even know how excited I am for this family. I'm sure they're really shocked at how fast things are moving for them.

I'm yet to make my own donation but I'm really amazed at other people's response. Absolutely beautiful hearts. People are even begging to contribute. God's blessings on everyone.

The Organisers, you all are terrific! Working back to back to make this family see the light at the end of their tunnel. Leaving all you had to do just to see that this family settles in a safe and comfortable place they can call a proper home. I can even tell you're excited for this family from your posts  cheesy Great is your reward! May God remember you in your own time of need. A time when everyone passes you by, may He send help speedily. Amen.

Well done guys!  smiley

Family / Re: Man Raises Family Under Lagos Bridge by Radiant(f): 2:17pm On Nov 21, 2011
A massive well done to everyone! Ify, Jarus, Olowotee, r231 [/b]you guys deserve a good handshake!

Can I please advise that we do things differently?

- The organisers should stick together and work closely as you're already doing.

- Let us move this family to an accommodation we find for them.

- We do not need to know where they've moved to for security reasons. We believe the organisers and know that they'll find a decent place for this family. We do not need to know where they move to.

- Please leave the press alone. Forget about what others promised this family. We are not competing with anybody. God is our witness and for sure the press are on this site. They know what's going on. Don't hold your breath.

- Please [b]r231
, you guys should not send mails to many people as you don't know who is who again. Work closely with the people we know like[b] Ify[/b], Jarus, Olowotee. Example, I do not need to get a mail with an update. I trust you guys to do the best you can and I'm sure others are on the same page with me.
- I hope posting the pictures won't cause more harm than good. Trust me I believe you guys.

Above all, can we please donate to this good cause. I'm not surprised with the updates. I never believed all that media negative hype in the first place.

r231, Wednesday for my contribution.

Well done guys!
Family / Re: Man Raises Family Under Lagos Bridge by Radiant(f): 1:06am On Nov 19, 2011
Great job guys.

r231, I will send mine next Wednesday, 23rd. Bless!
