Inspirational: Why Police Boss, Dolapo Badmus Has Pledged To Set Up Businesses For Three Young Lads
Police boss, Opetodolapo Badmus has pledged to come to the aid of three young boys she met by the road side. The Police Public Relations Officer and mum-of-three shared via her Instagram, how the lads warmed her heart with their commitment to duty despite their young ages.
The people-centric cop said she pulled over at a mechanic workshop to have her tyres fixed but was surprised, and even skeptical when the three boys showed up to assess her tyres.
According to Badmus, she was eventually bought over by their team work, and professionalism as she watched them assess and fix the issues. They assured her that she would have no cause to worry about their work; the mum-of-three says it turned out just as they had told her, she’s been having a hitch-free ride with her car.
She revealed that the boys parents’ have resolved they won’t be sent to school for formal education. While she admits that that is sad, she says skill acquisition is also a type of education and that she will work with her friends to set up businesses for all three boys once they graduate from being apprentices.

”So I pulled up at a vulcanizer workshop to fix my tyre…..I got a shocker when I saw this young lads dotting around my tyre, checking, confirming and reconfirming to each other the state of the tyre!
Even though I was first pessimistic about them having proper skill to fix it but having listened to their conversation I decided to be patient and see what they can offer!
I was moved when I saw the dexterity at which they handled the work, moreso every question I put to them was professionally answered, then I needed no further conviction that they surely got their hands on the skill…..
After getting the tyre done I was reassured that I wont have cause to complain about the work done and sincerely I’ve not had reason to complain!
I was not only moved by their commitment to learn the skill, but I was also moved by their dedication to work! In this era where our younger ones have been programmed to believe there is shortcut to success through internet fraud and illegitimate ways, when I see young ones committed to hardwork, I always doff my hat…..
These ones caught my attention, even though they said their parents wont let them go to school because they have acquired skill (it’s not bad though, we can’t all have formal education, acquiring skill is another good form of education).
I have promised to keep up with them till they are ready for graduation (freedom), I’m willing (through the support of my good friends) to set them up and ensure they start their own businesses without much hassles.
God bless all the young ones out there that understands no other way to success than hardwork…..may they be the reason someone changes from negative ways to positivity!
I have to encourage them by adding more to their dough.”
