A corp member who is on his mandatory one year youth service in Kano state is being praised by Nigerians on social media for putting a smile on a corn seller’s face.
The young man reportedly visited her workplace in Kaduna and presented her with an umbrella and cash support for her business.
The NYSC member with Twitter handle @FotoNugget took to the microblogging platform to share pictures of himself and the woman with her new umbrella.
According to him, two Good Samaritans transferred N20,000 to him after he shared her story online.
@FotoNugget said he bought the umbrella with N10k and gave the woman the remaining N10k.
“Remember the Ebira Maize seller I wrote about? Two good souls sent N20k to get her the Umbrella & I was able to look for the biggest size today at the cost of N10k. She almost cry shouting “Bcus of 1 small maize I gave you?”. I gave her the remaining N10k to buy more maize,” he wrote.
Nigerians took to the comment section of his post to commend him.

@nohrix; We need to revive the culture of rewarding kindness, patriotism, excellence, heroism, etc. We must learn to reward those who go out of their way to do good to and for others.
@MMbashrex; More of your types and kinds are needed to make this country great. Average Nigerians love themselves. God bless you brother…
