The touching story of Malaolu Oluseye is worth sharing to the people. Oluseye was just like every other hardworking man, until one day, when his entire hard-work turned around.
Oluseye is a Father of 3. According to him, he was working at his workshop on a faithful day when a client brought a trailer Tyre for him to repair.
While he was attempting to repair the tyre, he called his son to assist him. They put on the generator because there was no light to weld. As his son brought some tools for work, the tyre exploded and Oluseye landed in the hospital.
The welder was lifeless as he lost an arm, eyeball, his hearing on one ear and other cuts on his body. While his son lost an arm, and a leg.
Oluseye said he has done several surgeries which was over N7 million naira. He was given an artificial eye which he uses for his work. His son is using crutches to aid his movement.
The father of three said he sold plenty of his machines and properties to raise the money for him and his son’s operation. His wife also sold all her market to support their surgeries.
Oluseye wishes he was the only one that got involved in the accident. He said his son is still young and has many years to live. “His condition makes me feel pain.”
His affected son explained that he suffers pain on his amputated arm and leg every night as he goes to sleep. The young boy hardly sleeps comfortable because of the injuries.
Oluseye still manages to work in his shop despite his condition. The welder is in need of support as some clients refuse to give him work considering his current situation.
Please always be careful when working, especially with heavy machines and tools. I just hope Oluseye manages to become successful in his business again.
