A Lagosian whose house was ravaged by massive flood some days ago took a break from reality to smile at the camera as he took pictures amid his painful financial losses.
The unnamed man smiling in the flood
Photos of this Nigerian man smiling in front of his house in Makoko which was flooded during the heavy downpour in Lagos last weekend have gone viral.
Many are hailing him for still finding something to smile about despite his situation, which was so bad that the rain water got up to his chest level.
He was later pictured picking his shoes and personal belongings from the flood while still smiling. Many states in Nigeria have been hit in the rainy season due to the absence of good and working drainage facilities.
