A young man and automobile mechanic, AbdulRahman Hassan who saved a stretch of houses in July from burning to ashes at Ayoade street in the Somolu area of the state has recently graduated from an automobile mechanic apprenticeship.
The elated young and energetic man who spent years learning what he believes will not only put food on his table but at least earn the respect of his family members and friends especially those around him and as well gets other luxuries of life recently heave a sigh of relief after he was left off the hook.
Abdulrahman was on Saturday handed his ‘freedom certificate’ by his master, Mr Musbau Akanbi Yusuff (a.k.a. Fuji Spanner) to operate and be engaged by whoever needs his service as it’s the doctrine mostly in western parts of the country.
Engr. Musbau, however, described Abdulrahman the newly graduated subject as a very dedicated, hardworking, loyal and serious-minded young man who served wholeheartedly.
“I won’t hesitate to say Abdulrahman has served me passionately and deserved every accolade and positive comment that comes his way. He’s a loyal subject that will never complain when he faces challenges in the course of carrying out daily tasks.
“It’s my prayer that God in His infinite mercy will give him more wisdom and understanding to further his career in the just learnt job while I urged him to remain steadfast and be prayerful”. he said.
The graduation which was held at Abimbola street via Abiodun Street, Somolu has top echelon of automobile mechanic top shots in Somolu in attendance not leaving out Abdulrahman’s family members from far and near and loving neighbours who came out in their numbers to grace the occasion amid Pomp’s and pageantry.
The fearless young automobile mechanic was instrumental to life-saving efforts that put off inferno a few months ago when he heard people shouting fire-fire on top of their voice, he quickly assembles his friends around and gets to work.
Although, it took them two hours to get the situation under control as Abdulrahman was at the centre stage dishing out orders to those who care to listen to him until they extinguished the fire in its entirety thereby saving lives and properties.
Heaps of praises were mounted on him for his efforts in ensuring the fire was put out and has since then become the hero of the day and cynosure of all eyes anytime he goes out of his domain.
