A man rewarded his maid
Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that at a wedding in Tanzania, a groom stood up to give his vote of thanks to those who had made his event successful.
As it turned out, the firstborn in a family with two sons had an important guest in the audience; the family's long-serving nanny, Nikolina Nyigo.
He explained that as much as their parents nurtured the two boys into the men they are, the nanny's role cannot go unnoticed.
