Immediately I opened this post on one of the blogs I follow it spoke to me straight up cause few years ago I was in a situation like this, homeless in a new place. Not like I didn't have where to stay but the choice to stay there was hard for me (long story) Then good young men from my village 'illah' took me in as their own for over 2weeks before I finally went to stay with another guy from my village also who has been like a big brother to me.
Big shout out to Gerald Ugeh and Emeke Enuofu men like you make life easy to come by. I can never forget your good gestures towards me and I hope one day God will be able to repay you for your good deed to me.
Read the story below:
I am a corp member in the Federal Capital, NYSC brought me here, I don't know anybody in this town, I had to stay in camp for extra days after passing out because of accommodation problem, I honestly do not want to recount that experience.
Fast forward a friend in Lagos linked me up with her Uncle here in Abuja, alas the man had an empty boys quarter and like magic offered me the place for free. To cut the long story short, this man has been pestering me non stop for sex, and right now has given me an ultimatum to move out, pay five hundred and fifty thousand naira as yearly rent for the house or give in to his advances.
I must say people call it pride, but sleeping with someone in exchange for a temporary material thing is just not an option for me, my parents cannot afford to pay for a place for me to rent right away, i have weighed the options, if i start sleeping with this old man now, means i would continue till the end of my service year, means i would be offending God for almost a year straight. I just do not know why people are so evil, this man is way older than my father and it would cost him absolutely nothing to let me stay there. I spoke with my friend about it, and in her own words "I always dull myself" Please pleaseeee, help me, if you have a place for me to stay in Abuja, I know it is hard letting strangers into your home, but i swear I am not an evil person, I am not a bad person at all, I just need a place to lay my head, I don't want to be homeless, i have tried to redeploy back to Lagos where i have accommodation, but the process failed.
The only last option for me would be to forget about the whole NYSC thing and just go back home, as sleeping with a man older than my father is just not an option for me. If you have ever been homeless before you would have an idea of how i feel right now. I do not even want to tell my mum of what i am going through, cos she is hypertensive and worries about everything. I had to summarize this story and leave out some details, as i am honestly not looking for pity, just a place to stay.
Like they say desperate situations call for desperate measures, please if you have never been in this kind of situation, no need to laugh or curse me out. Cos i pray you never experience it.

Men can be evil
ReplyDeleteMy dear may God help u out of this dilemma
If u are a Muslim or Christian. Don't u participate in religious activities. If yes , u would know that MCAN and NCCF all A/V free lodges for corp members. Where u can stay comfortably thru out ur one year service. Pls u don't need to sleep with the old man. Good luck.
