Rather than sit and wait for the floods to dry off, Media Personality and Vlogger Ariyike Akinbobola has done the needful.
The you tube star, posted thus on instagram page:
“It’s
a new month and that gives you the opportunity to start off on a good
note. So our once water free road has become a River and no one in the
hood is bothered. Many Nigerians are really not big on maintenance. The
average Nigerian would only get up and do something after his Car gets
stuck inside the water. No? So I decided to take it upon myself to sort
it out cos at the end of the day, if my Car gets spoilt, my Mechanic
will have a feast on top my matter. To cut the long story short, I knew I
had to fill this road so I called different suppliers of broken blocks
and the different prices I got almost discouraged me.
Some called 5
tonnes of broken blocks for 20k, others 15k until my friend Elizabeth
who is a supplier of building materials gave me one “Oloye’s” number. He
gave me the best deal at 9k for 5 tonnes so I placed my order for 10
tonnes at 18, 000 naira. The next picture I will post will be after the
trailers have poured the broken blocks inside this my River Road. This
is just to show you that you can do your own bit in contributing to your
Community and guess what?
You will benefit from it and others will also
benefit. My Comfort is very important to me and I realised that most
times it doesn’t cost a fortune to live a comfortable life. Let’s stop
waiting for the Government or our neighbours to do everything. If one
neighbour has been the one doing something on your street then you
better begin to contribute. Look for ways to improve your Communities
because at the end of the day, you will enjoy the ammenities you provide
and if you don’t provide those ammenities, you will suffer great
discomfort. My talk talk is too much jor. Happy new month Lovers, go out
there and make a difference. #AriyikeAkinbobola #Makeadifference

Wowza!!!
I spot an Okada driving smoothly on my street. These are the things
that make me smile. Road all fixed and sorted by God Almighty through
moi. Now everyone can enjoy the use of this road because the Akinbobolas
decided to make a difference. If you don’t understand, pls check out my
last posts. #Makeadifference #Communitydevelopment #Change
Well done and bravo!
