A Twitter user has shared the sad story of a UK deportee who now sleeps on the streets of Festac after she returned to find that her tenant had sold her house.
The social media user identified as AU Zarma @Diixixme said 65-year-old Florence Owanogo was deported after 25 years in the UK.
He narrated how she got locked up for 3 months by the Nigerian Police when she tired to retrieve her property.
AU Zarma @Diixixme initially thought she was mad but bystanders gave him a hint about her ordeal.
According to the concerned citizen, “I saw this woman yesterday, at Festac 5th avenue by 51 road sleeping around 5th avenue t junction i thought she’s mad woman someone told me she’s not mad I decided to meet her this night & ask here the problem she begin to tell me her story in brief that she was deported from UK.
“And her tenant sold the house, she reported the case to Police, Police compromise the case and take her to detention she was detained for 3 months I really pity her because her situation need serious attention so, I decided to collect her number and bring her case here
“Her name is Florence Owanogo, 65 years old anyone that is willing to help should come to festac 5th avenue by 51 road junction where she now sleep and her house address that was sold is house 23 M close 5th avenue.
She spent 25 years in UK struggling just imagine this kind of wickedness I said to her ma’am, all i can do for you is to take your case to social media we might find someone who is willing to help she said is alright & I asked for her permission to snap her she said is alright.”
Help appears to be coming to the stranded lady as a certain Nkechi Okoye has undertaken to assist her with a little capital to start a petty trade.
According to AU Zarma @Diixixme, “I see love and kindness from this woman her name is Nkechi Okoye, she’s the one helping Mrs Florence Uwanogo with food and other stuffs she sell pure water and biscuit along 5th avenue close to Rufaida Yoghurt shop. with the little she has she still have the heart to help.
