My unbelievable experience fetching water with the kids in an Ogun State Village

First one today

Thanks!

Goodluck and God bless

Hey Bayo. You have to drink garri and eat eba to be able to do what those kids are doing. Hahahahaha

very Kind of you helping those innocent kid's. that's the reality of most kids living in rural villages without no access to basic amenities. very unfortunate. meanwhile, thanks for helping out with the community with a water source.

Bayo Adio involves himself with the community and actively strives to help change things he has the power to change for the better. He dose not arrogantly cry shithole as if he is above anyone or that the uncomfortable sights has nothing to do with him. Nigeria needs more like him.

Thanks!

Bayo this is so touching! To know this is what these kids and the community have to go through to get water in these days and times! I hope they get all the help needed for portable water to get delivered to them. Please give updates on this- very interested. Thanks 🙏

Omg! Those babies, my heart goes out to them JESUS HELP 🙏 And Thank you Sir for all you do.

You are so Awsome in all you do. May GOD BLESS YOU.🙏

Look at the tiny one in blue. 😁💙💙💙💙. God bless them all and you too @BayoAdio

This is so inspiring. Some times I want to give up on coming back and then I see videos like this and remember I need to come home soon.

Wow Brother. Eku ise na.

I remember carrying water in Liberia amongst other things… Definitely on my way back home to help 🦋✨🌱.. I love the character it builds in oneself 👆🔥💯

Why don't we Africans use "beasts of burden" like horses, donkeys and cows to take our burden? I still see kids walking miles to school etc when in other countries they use animals. 😏

Mr Adio, I think we need to create about 3 wells for the community and please if it is fine with you I will love to at least contribute £1 towards the wells sir. They are too small kids and their safety is a bother

Thanks for all you’re doing
God bless you

This is sad, why can't the government provide the basic necessaries for her citizens😭😭

Thank you Bayo for that huge help to the community , especially relieving those children of the hardship going down the forest to fetch water. God bless you more. Amen ❤ 🙏

Truly inspiring Bayo and even greater is your decision to do your bit to help. I know what it's like fetching water from a river – a boarding school experience which was really stressful at the time but looking back now is one of the cherished memories I have. God bless this effort and hopefully the transformation it brings to that community will put smiles on those children's faces 🙂

Someone (maybe me) should look into the manufacturer of ceramic water cartridges in Lagos, Nigeria as a whole, this way the water they find can be filtered. The cartriges are for gravity fed water filters, I actually think colonialists got the idea from traditional African water pots. The water containers are now stainless steel but they were traditional clay or stoneware, the two main brands are Berkefeld and Berky(?). I live in London, UK and bought a filter so that if need be and I need to drink rain water or any kind of suspect water I can, but I use it for my everyday drink and cooking The cartridges are expensive now compared to your Brita but it is a completely different product when it comes to water filtration. And, since 2020 and people learning that they need to learn self-sufficiency, the manufacturers and retailers have jacked up the price but a short term solution would be to buy some for the local community. The cartridges can last up to two years and you can wash them to renew. All over youtube you find videos on how to make the filter for the cartridges using food grade plastic buckets. Even with water wells these cartridges would be good to have because that water in the plastic bags in alot of west African countries has god knows what chemicals in it. I use my filter and cartridges to clean the tap water here in London, I just can't drink it straight out the tap. Anyway, I love that you showed how your engaging with the wider community, although I am always suspect when people want to use Africans to perform philantrophy, the poor African propaganda dehumanises Africans and we need to nip it in the bud.

If African leaders were not as corrupt..all the monies stolen to buys expensive real estate in the west could have provided water and other amenities to increase the living standards of these poor kids and their families.These leaders love to see their people suffer. You are doing a great job..let me know how we can help Adio.please

You are amazing

I've been there when I was little, I know the pain and stress this kids may be facing. I want to contribute for the water project. Let me know.

How long will it take to get the borehole sorted and how much willit cost?. Will definitely be contributing towards this project. Great job Bayo

Hey Bayo, those kids are fitter than you.😁. As always you are doing great work and reaching out to people that matter. Coincidentally, I am in Ghana, a place called Senya Beraku in the central region, doing something similar, reaching out to the local people, especially the children. Keep up the good work. Remain blessed.🙏🏽

Hi Bayo, i would suggest also creating at least 2 wells for the community. I know you guys are going to be close to the community, but sometimes these communities have issues with sustainability. As soon as the borehole gets a technical fault, it might become abandoned if the community is not collecting a token to set aside for repairs, etc. Sometimes it might even be the cost of fueling a generator to pump the borehole if they have no constant electricity. So, having another backup like wells around the community will help greatly.

OMG little Kidds carrying water 😱

So humbling to watch. We indeed take things for granted. Well done Bayo

There are regions that ( unfortunately) have the problem of portable water source and supply. In the south of Nigeria, water isn't much of a problem though but you have to dig a well or borehole to get clean water all year round. Provision of pipe borne water to every household is a necessity. Thanks for helping them out.

Hi Bayo. I am Indian, residing in Lagos. I want to part of your video. Please take me for one of your tours 🙏

God bless you 🙏

Nice one bayo keep it up

Love from Sri Lanka ❤

Kindly send me your account. Let me send my own part. 5,000 naira for the project.

Lost for words. Such a pity in the land of many.
Well done guys.

the main reason i subscribed is Mr. Bayo's humanity, very respectful of every individual,great job sir.

So graceful… ❤

Poor babies.. it shouldn’t be like this. Children should be allowed to be just kids and enjoy that experience. I pray for Nigeria
