We played host to the children of Makoko community in Yaba, lagos state.
There was food and there was food! I thought we wouldn't have kids come seeing as we started somewhat later than we wanted.
But Lawd have mercy!!! We were swamped!
The whole scene made me weep ( observe the tense) for the future of these kids, will they make it out of this slum? seeing as our government would rather pass bills to make child marriage legal than make ones that will enable kids such as this child (picture below)have a shot at a good future.
Will he be amongst those whose story would give drake's "started from the bottom now we here" the intended meaning ...I sincerely hope so.
