Meet Azeez Sodiq, a 35-year-old skilled mechanical engineer with 13 years of experience. Everything changed after a serious accident where a car engine fell on his hands. In pain and looking for relief, he listened to a friend’s advice and started using substances as a Cure because he couldn’t afford the prescription drugs from the hospital. In an attempt to manage the pain it eventually led him into addiction and deep regret. Azeez still carries valuable skills and a desire to rebuild. If you’re willing to support his rehabilitation and help him get back on his feet, please reach out. #wearenotthugs #want #explore #fypシ

Meet Igberaese Omozele Ogechi Princess. 30 years old. Graduate of Theatre and Media Studies, University of Calabar. Professional chef with a diploma in culinary arts. An only child. A single mother. Behind the degrees and the skill is a painful story, a broken home, a father who disowned her, and friends who body-shamed her until the pain became too heavy to carry alone which led her into drug addiction. Princess is not her addiction. She is a mother. A graduate. A chef with skill and dreams still alive in her. Let’s help her get back on track. #sayNoToDrugs #wearenotthugs #explore #want #fyp
