Is this Nigeria's smallest man?

A LIB reader sent in this photo. Said he spotted the very small man begging for alms at Oshodi, Lagos. Have you seen anyone smaller than this in Naija?

  2. Hey hun, think you should take off this post. Though you don't mean any harm, I strongly believe it is very derogatory to post a picture of a disabled person, asking for comparisons. It is slightly disgusting that you would even post this. Please delete. I think it is rude and offensive.

  22. I have never ever been as short of words as i was when i saw this picture,i still dont know how to react to this pic...i guess i have already reacted.

    ReplyDelete
  23. is he short? i've seen him a few times at oshodi and i think his body didn't grow while his head was growing. Might be some sort of genetic mutation. that's women need to be extra careful with the sort of drugs that they take when they pregnant.

  24. He's smaller than d current worlds smallest man. Pls can someone enter him for GWR... He could win and better his lot o

    ReplyDelete

  26. Linda, you should consider the Guinness World Record option. Wouldn't that be great publicity for you also? I read your Bellanaija interview and my goodness was I proud of you! Your mother must be so proud, more grease to your elbow - may those who love God's words turn towards you (Ps. 119:79) IJMN. You are a positive voice for our great nation and may God give you the strength to bless those whom time has forgotten, IJMN. Amen.

  27. Did he just stop groeing or what *confused o*

    ReplyDelete
  28. Yes he stands around where they take BRT in oshodi to obalende or CMS...

    ReplyDelete
  29. Know him well.He normally hangs around oshodi underbridge begging for alms from BRT passengers on queue.He has some deformity and growth impairment but a 'sharp mouth'.He lives under the bridge and makes money daily as commutters are always moved to give to him.

  31. This is the smallest man I've seen. I'm sure Naijas have tortured him bcos of his disability.

  45. Than focus on how small this man is and marvelling at his diability - Linda I think it is better that you use this platform to garner support (monetary) for this guy and show some charity at least for once.

    Really kthe objective of your posting this image should be kmuch more positive than a merely encourgaing gawking at a disadvantaged and unfortunate man who did not ask to be in the positio that he is.

  46. U guys r all saying he is small am sure if he has small change now like aki n pawpaw most of d girls here will b glad 2 b his wife.
