I live in Lagos, I was born and raised here. We all know Makoko, everyone has driven past this community at least a thousand times. This video makes me feel guilty that it took someone from another continent to show me how life goes 1 hour away from me. It’s a wake up call to help your neighbor in whatever little way you can, you really don’t need to be a millionaire to care for those who are unable to care for themselves

The guy taking him around is so brilliant, he knows so much about his environment ❤

The guy showing him around is amazing he looks like he has the ability to move out to a better neighbourhood and have a much better life in general but he remains there, helps his community and shares with others whatever he was blessed with.

The tour guide deserve alot of accolades, his communication skills and heart is just awesome

The ability of Nigerians to smile through their situation and still count their blessings despite the struggles they face is inspiring, god bless

It really makes you think. These people seem really happy and have next to nothing and here in the US there are so many people that complain about the stupidest stuff (including myself). I really admire these people. It makes me much more grateful for what I have and puts things into perspective. Great video.

I'm Nigerian... I live and study in Benue State... And I actually thought I had it rough. This has me guilty and in tears. I'll keep fighting for a better life but I'll never say I'm suffering again. Great Video.

To be able to breath fresh air, sleep in a comfortable bed and drink clean, fresh water, puts you in the privileged bracket of society. Travelling has opened my eyes.

This guy is a rare gem! Sticking with his community. We can all learn from him. Thanks the guy who made the video

A friend who was born and raised in this slum went on to attend the University of Lagos and, subsequently, the University of Cambridge for his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering. Today, he works at Total Oil Producing Company in France. As they say, “impossible is nothing.”

I met this young man and his dad when I went to Makoko with a production team, such a warm and kind man. That visit opened my eyes to a lot of things. I still wonder how a community like this is filled with people with kind hearts. Thanks for raising money for the orphanage, you are amazing

I’m 20 years old from the uk stressing about money but really don’t know how good I’ve got it. These brothers are living in a tin shack above Faeces infested water playing ps2 and still smiling. Crazy. Appreciate what you have.

Can we applaud the Nigerian guy touring him around. He is so intelligent. I wish he could have a better life.

[yessirsirr]

He way the other guy said “ because I have all this, I have to share it with others” that’s why he’s so blessed up 💯 keep it up fam! It cost $0 to be nice and the pay back is so expensive! Use it wisely ❤️

I'm a Nigerian and living here in Nigeria is very difficult for alot of people, slums are very common but Nigerians don't give up and smile through their sufferings I lost my mum few months ago because i couldn't afford to get her to the hospital, alot of us try as much as possible to live and I'm so happy and grateful for all those who have donated to help this people.

[blkarmani]

Love how this young man shares everything that he buys with the whole community.

This is actually heart breaking. We just don't know how lucky we are. Thank you for building the orphanage to give these people a chance.

I lived in Mali as an expat kid, the poverty i saw was worse than anything I’ve seen even by Indian standards. Yet, the poorest ppl I met seemed to be the happiest. There was one guy named Moussa who would give me peaches every morning for free that he sold. So on my way back from school everyday, I’d buy lunch for him. He kept a lookout for me and never let the others bother me. He was the sweetest man, Africans have hearts made of gold. The next generation will change the future for the better I’m sure!
