Photos: Lady who picked up a destitute to rehabilitate him in Lagos gives an update

Remember the young lady, Olorunfunmi Adebajo who shared the story of how she picked up a destitute named Gbolahan, in the Ire-Akari area in Lagos state? (Read here). Well she has given an update about her journey to rehabilitating her...Read what she shared on Facebook after the cut..



Quite a while right? Our brother Gbolly is fine and in good hands. We went to the hospital yesterday to meet 'Dr. O' who had taken interest in Gbolahan and offered FREE medical evaluation and treatment. I kept smiling while the doctor explained the need for examining vital organs after prolonged abuse of alcohol...i could have been a doctor too but i hated chemistry! Anyway, Gbolahan's blood samples have been taken...We await the results. A Nigerian missionary doctor in the U.S also took interest in the story and now, Gbolahan has an appointment with the dentist sometime next week...This is also FREE. Today, we met @Princess Kay Ajibade who specialises in male clothings. ...she's giving him two sets of native FREE. Someone drove all the way from Ikoyi to bring Gbolahan some clothes in Isolo, a youth corper in Adamawa state sent #2,500 out of his 'allawee' to feed Gbolahan for a couple of days...I also went to pick some clothes for him at another location yesterday....Someone even offered to take up his accommodation!!!
You have all contributed in no little measure to make this successful. Most importantly, we met with Keji Hamilton who runs the House of Joy rehab. Pastor Keji has taken the burden of getting a rehab off my shoulders, he is also helping us get Gbolahan someplace to learn a trade while the rehab admission process is finalised. Thank you all for sparing your resources and time to give Mr Gbolahan hope again. All these would not have been possible without you.. Thank you Nigeria..This is who we are, #‎GoodPeopleGreatNation‬

    Gbolahon was my class mate when we were in primary school. He is very gentle and always feeling shy. Due to lack of finances he couldn't complete his primary education. His father died when Gbolahon was in his twenties. When nobody could carter for them he took to the stre
    et from them to refuse dump site at Oke-Afa Isolo, along Jakande estate from there he became a destitute till today before he was rescued by this young lady being sent by God. Through taken of drugs and alcohol because of frustration he almost lost his memory.

    This is a good story of how we will all leave joyfully and have a better world if we really obey the commandment of the law which says “YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.' There is no other commandment greater than these.” Fine we might not have contributed to the problems of those that are down but helping them up will really make this world a better place for us all…Nice one Olorunfunmi Adebajo God will bless you.

Seeing what the lady has done is only encouraging me or someone else to show compassion to others. Bcos all the person might need is just one push. God bless you my dear and try and get him better spiritually too.
