A Nigerian man has been presented with a brand new truck as a reward for fixing potholes on Abuja roads for 30 years.
The heartwarming story of the 60-year-old man caught the attention of Twitter user @DoubleOGAdoga, and he took to the microblogging platform to share the account.
The tweep disclosed that he has known the man since he was 8-year-old and was deeply moved by his commitment to patching roads in Abuja for free.
According to him, he reached out to the man recently and was deeply heartbroken to discover that the man was suffering and had nothing to his name.
He then initiated a crowdfunding campaign to raise funds for the man and his family. Fortunately, the story went viral and many Abuja residents attested to seeing the man in their communities.
In an interesting new update, the man has now been rewarded with a brand new truck for his outstanding acts of selflessness and dedication.
@DoubleOGAdoga, who owns a venture capitalist company, also presented a certificate of service to the man.
