“Blessings are not measured on sanity, colour, race, statue nor, history but every soul deserves a hand. This world is too cruel for souls like this one and only a few people have made a choice to recognize this kind of people care. They all at one point had a dream which they were denied by someone who pushed them to the limit n they couldn't fight back. The good thing is God saw it all. I'm inspired to lend a hand in my small space.”
Kind man gives poor stranger N205k for just hugging him
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a man who wasn't paid at work was surprised with N205k by a stranger.
At the start of the short video shared on Facebook by Maria Ude Nwachi, the stranger set out for the day to give $500 to the first person who hugs him.
The stranger ran into the poor man who rode a bicycle and made his unusual request for a hug.
The man smiled, complied and couldn't believe his eyes when he was handed the cash reward.
