The Nigerians are so very kind. Today Mike (it is his birthday… Happy Birthday Mike!!!) was invited to the Malloy’s with the Sampsons for an afternoon of fun and a make-shift birthday party, including a cake!!! The plan was for me to get to the Malloy’s after class. Now how was I going to get there??? Hmmm…
I checked with the Seminary, but all the drivers were out. So I went to plan B, I asked my class if anyone was living off campus and might be driving home after class… no one. They all are staying here at JETS. Then one student, Isaku, said I have a car I can drive you. And he did. He wasn’t going out but he took time from his studies and family to drive me across town. Nice…
Now came a second challenge, how to get to Malloy’s. I think I remember how to get their but I cannot say for certain. I decided to call Ebere to see if he remembered. We met and although he was supposed to be going to a meeting, he said he would ride along, since Isaku is coming right back, and make sure I get there… Nice.
We got there with no wrong turns, it took about 15 minutes … thanks Isaku and Ebere for being nice and getting me to Mike and my friends. You certainly didn’t have to do it. Ebere I hope you weren’t too late for your meeting.
The Nigerians I have met are definitely nice, kind and helpful…
