PHOTOS: Crippled Man "Big Dreams" Makes Shoes In Benue To Earn A Living

First heard of the seemingly disabled guy Aondofa popularly known as "Big dreams",a shoe maker through the enigmatic Rev. Abel Uloko of the House on the Rock church in Makurdi.

Though crippled from childhood, the guy never allowed that shatter his dreams of being a maker of what he doesn't even necessarily need(shoes).

He got the opportunity to showcase his products to a large crowd of over a thousand people at the ESLF organized 1st Benue Youth Entrepreneurship Summit.

The Governor of Benue State Hon Samuel Ortom and his wife, Dr. Mrs. Eunice Ortom, the Deputy Governor, Engr. Benson Abounu as well as the Honorable Minister of agriculture, Federal Republic of Nigeria, Chief Audu Ogbeh endorsed his products and bought some for personal use.

Rev. Abel Uloko had earlier on in the month taken some of his products to far away USA where it is said to have got some requests for supply already.




Dr. Mrs. Eunice Ortom who is the convener of the summit and the founder of the Eunice Spring of Life Foundation promised to do her bit in making sure his business is improved to a reasonable standard.

Hard work and dedication surely pays.
