      Please, how can we support his work financially? And if I visited makoko next week, will I. I stay on the island and I just want to visit that area for the first time. I’m so inspired that if a foreigner can come all the way what is stopping me meet him there?

      It’s exactly what I thought as a lot come to Nigeria from past crime.
      One such was a missionary from USA who went to Kenya with his wife but married a 2nd wife unknown to his wife.
      He almost got away with her murder but GOD brought her to life and told her story.
      I pray he is genuine not a criminal but check him due to children too. 😢

    I heard the Nigerian 🇳🇬government deems MAKOKO an ILLEGAL Community and they have warned them to leave for the past one year. Anyway same source says the community will be removed forcefully or otherwise before April 2024 as part of the land they are reclaiming from the sea. My own issue is I hope the government has plans, to relocate them somewhere better and not just drive them away like that.

      He will never get Nigerian partners because that guy is a pedophile and his sole priority there is to r@pe African kids and then hide under the guise of charity or “helping” Africans. These people have never cared about Africans. The moment some of you realize that the better for African kids!

    I respect Mr Kyle and I thank him. Water is something Nigerians neglect - I was glad you launched that clean water initiative - Kudos.
    Questions arise in my mind:
    1) Why aren't the NYSC deployed to help with a project such as this?
    2) Lagos state has a multi-billion dollar economy, why can't they dedicate a fraction of this towards communities that lack clean drinking water?
    People are quick to BOAST of a population of 200+ million, but it takes a foreigner with a "pricked conscience" (from childhood) to come and do something like this. It's kind of sad how as a society we have become blind to people's obvious needs. Despite all the talk of being the "giant of Africa" - the poor in Nigeria are no better off than the poor in "poorer" African countries, they could even be worse because there are more people to fight to get what you want.
    I would like to commend Mr Kyle he has so many good ideas.

    idf i were him, i would not say that starving thing. Its just a stereotype and he will make many people angry by relating it to us. Arica is a huge continent of 54 countries, I am sure he did not see anyone that looks starved like you find in some desert country I am not going to mention. These people need help in Makoto, but saying they are starving is just an insult to them. apart from that I applaud him and everyone doing what they can to help.

      I am a Nigerian. It is true people are starving in Nigeria. It is a false sense of pride to say that they are not starving. In Nigeria they will beat a child nearly to death if the child steals food to eat.
