This touched me. I am going towards Eko hotel today and I hope to meet her too and do the little I can. I pray she finds better help soon.
I pray she gets help. But come to think of it, her story is not enough excuse to live in the streets(if she is ok mentally). People start as low as washing plates in restaurants and hotels just to have daily meals and place to sleep or even wash and sweep just to get through life
Y didn’t she try get a job all dis while n b independent b4 she ws thrown out? Pls queen wen u get help,pls get a life cus der re pple who’s situation s worse buh dey re nt on streets.
Hmmmmm
Pls dis is not the time to throw tantrums. We r not in the position to judge her we don’t even know if this story is all that is there to know. Pls how do we help her cuz giving her money is not enough, will pple want to sell to her or even accommodate her if she is given money to rent an apartment?
God send her help
Hmmmmm
Yes,she needs our help, but d first question you ask yourself is if she’s mentally OK, cos a normal person won’t ly on the ground and claim to be OK, yes she speaks well does not mean she’s normal, the first thing is to investigate her mental status, just like others said she can make a life for herself, she’s fit, she’s not physically challenged,
Natasha, uve done well, bringing this up, she needs ur advice not your money.( that’s if she’s mentally OK)
Thanks.
It pays to open links b4 commenting o,I was already nailing her to the cross but thank God I opened ds link
I pray God to give her all the help she desires especially psychologically
Please those that can help should please do.. I think she is ok,if u have not been homeless in lagos before,u won’t understand what the lady is passing through. I am a witness
Her actually saw her on my way to church and drove past.God pls forgive me. But her case isnt too bad from her story.
Eya…May helper locate her
I don’t think she’s mentally stable.
hope she finds help
