Soldiers help keke driver and bicycle rider

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a Nigerian man, Kingsani Adikwu, shared a video as he narrated how two soldiers helped a keke driver and a bicycle man involved in an accident in Adamawa state.

According to the eyewitness, the bicycle man who caused the accident cried that he does not have enough money for repairs.

When the soldiers saw what was happening, they decided to step in. On seeing that the bicycle man was remorseful and poor, they paid the bill on his behalf.
