On Sunday morning, April 15, 2012, ‘The Breakfast Parlour’ paid a visit to ‘The Destitutes’ Home’ in Oko Baba, Ebute Metta where they met with over 2000 less-privileged people.
The Destitutes’ Home was built fourteen
years ago by the Buba Marwa administration to house homeless people; but
somehow – many things seem to have gone wrong. They are abandoned –
even though, some of the leaders say the government send in food once in
a while. (The home is divided into three sections with individual
leaders– Blinds, Lepers and Cripples)
Led by rapper Sauce Kid, the crew interacted and shared food, cloth and other items with the ‘Okobaba 2000’.
‘We hope to create and spread awareness
about The Destitutes’ home, Oko baba via blogs, social networks and
every available platform till they get an upgrade’, Sauce Kid says.
‘The Breakfast Parlour’ is an SMG and G Muzik initiative to create awareness about homeless people and their problems and is supported by Phoenix and Omalicha (of Rhythm 93.7 FM) , Gbemi and Toolz (of Beat 99.9 FM) as well as Sauce Kid.
