Disturbed by what he saw, he had followed up on the young boy named Sunday and went to where he stayed with his family. This was after he succeeded in getting him new clothes, thanks to supports from his friends and good-spirited individuals.

Tunde described where Sunday lived with his family as 'one of the worst places he has ever seen in his life' as their home was merely a zinc container on a river.

He met the boy's sister and dad but learnt that their mum had died three years ago from malaria.

Social media users were full of praises for the good Samaritan and showered prayers on him.
