Well done.

Thanks for helping out.

Thanks to God

What I did for a pregnant lady yesterday.

Ordinarily, this should be left between me and God but I feel the need to share. It could spur someone to also help others where they can. It was a selfless service.

At times, not until we know or have family lineage or personal relationship before we help someone but to help anyone we can without looking back. I am a 300level undergraduate. My mom (dad is late) place me on 8k monthly upkeep in school. The money landed in my account Friday evening and yesterday being Saturday, I was heading to the market to pick some stuff especially food items. Arriving the market premises, this heavily pregnant lady in her early 20s stopped and begged for my attention. Looking at her condition, I was already sympathetic so I stopped and listened. She started telling me what she is going through as the man who put her in the condition rejected the pregnancy and refused to be responsible. The security company she was working for laid her off when the pregnancy became very heavy. At the moment, no one to take care of her and obviously she will be due to put to bed very soon. Looking at her, I didn't know if all she told me were true but obviously she needs help as she was so down, drained and needed help as much as she could. Here, I quickly remembered a similar situation where my sister almost went through same if not for my mum who didn't reject her.

To cut the long story short, it was a hard decision but I summoned courage and gave that woman 5k out of my 8k. Right in my presence, the woman went into shops in the market and bought food items including some baby clothes from 'bend down select' (Okirika) and whatever the money could afford her.

When I went back to the hostel and told my friends about it, they were just laughing at me saying I'm stupid....they would see how I am going to survive. To them, it's stupidity but to me, it's a blessing. How 3k is going to feed me till next month is what I don't know but I'm not worried either because I strongly believe God is going to bring me favour too. We need each other in this life. Most importantly, seeing the joy in her after giving her the money also gave me joy and I went home happy. God bless us all!

Dem dey write exam?

I'm wondering what is left in that Borno state. May God help the innocent people there.

If it was winning/succeeding club Jersey, may be they would've considered you. Arsenal is not a winning team as of today.

Parental background has a lot in what a child becomes in the future. A parent who couldn't even give you Garri to eat, how would he make this possible?

Buhari has no business in Aso Rock again

Why not concentrate on this tenure first Only God knows who will be alive in 2023

Thank you very much for this comment. You see, these people behave as though their lives are in their hands.

It's a pity this is where we have found ourselves today. Quite a pity.
