Lagos Under Bridge Family Reject House Offer

Culled from Hope for Nigeria's Facebook page

We reported the condition of Monday Obu, his 2 year child and pregnant wife, Dupe, who have been living dangerously in poverty under Cele Bridge. They've rejected several help including accommodation and only demand cash offers.

A UK based Nigerian offered Obuh and his family a room at 13, Church Street, Off Gbajobi Bus Stop, Itele Road, Ota, Ogun State and he rejected it. The helper said that “I arranged to pay for a room to settle his family because of the child and the pregnant wife. I had wanted to buy a mattress, stove and other materials to ensure that the family can live a normal life again. He said that he wants to start a building material business, I intend to empower him by giving him money to start the business". - (Pm News)

A Lady banker yielding to Mr Obu's request for money to start business, she bought buckets, stove and related house fittings. “Yesterday, I used my ATM to withdraw money. I gave him N9,000 for mattress and another N4,000 for out of pocket expenses and he is insisting of been given N100,000 before leaving the under bridge home.

The pain from this disappointment from Mr Obu was why we were unable to send out any update today. Who is sure these efforts to give Hope back to Nigerian is worth continuing.

God Help Nigeria.
