A landlord talks about how his tenants assisted in repainting his house, and it moves him deeply on an emotional level.
The man, Tim Alims, disclosed that the tenants had rented one of his units; they are professional painters. Eyes Of Lagos reports,
He had told him that he was going to repaint the house, and he thought it was probably a joke.
The landlord said that he was very surprised to see that the house had been painted when he returned over the weekend.
Deeply moved and impressed by this, he prayed for the tenants to also build their own house so they can move into a house of their own.
He wrote on Facebook:
“The Tenants who Repainted my Compound
Here’s the gist…
I had contracted Tom and his elder brother to do the painting of the two units of #FragisApartments in January. This was after I saw them at work in a neighbours apartment. I appreciated the quality of work they were doing and hired them to work for me too.
While painting Fragis Apartments, they shared with me how lovely the apartments were and the kind of place they’ll like to stay.
Days after they had finished the painting, Tom called to let me know they were interested in taking one of the apartments.
We struck a deal. At that point, Tom was like “Chai, Oga, if we bin know say na we go take this house ehnn, we for just tell you to go and leave the work for us make we give this house correct painting. Anyhow sha, we go paint the whole compound to look fresh before you come back.” Like seriously?!
I thought it was a joke, but they kept to their words without my knowledge until I got home over the weekend to this big surprise.
I know they’ll see this post.
Bros, una too try. I thank una well well. Make God bless una. Like I tell una yesterday, e no go tay, una go build una own too, and I go dey here to support una with some bags of cement. 🙏”
