Distressed, Sick ,A Looming Eviction, Bereaved-Now THIS ?-Bayowa Adedeji

I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMEBODY I COULD CONNECT WITH-For help
But now as an afterthought, maybe I should have listened to other friends who warned me not to ask Seguro Ndabene Alberta's $17 million Lotto winner for assistance-but I am distressed , threatened with eviction into the cold winter streets and recently bereaved-I think if you were in my shoes ,you would also have grabbed at any straw for survival. Again what of that thing we called cultural connection?

WHAT I WROTE
So I opened my heart in a passionate letter ,enclosed copies my proof of authenticity and from my few remaining dollars I sent express mail to the Airdrie address I was given by another fellow African and prayed.

Some excerpts from letter to Seguro Ndabene...

"

I’m writing because people say you help the community and I’ve also read about it. I never thought things could be as bad as this .......I’m writing for help from you as I may soon be living on the streets in cold winter and ...recently lost my father... to bury him ...mom in hospital...I’m sick. –My African brother please rescue me.." I sent him my email address and a friend's phone number because my cell phone had been cut off (can't pay bill).

Is there any sin in asking for help? (I have raised money for needy women in Africa before by going on talking tours in Saskatchewam and Manitoba-)

Millonaire Returned My SOS Letter-

He Refused To Pay $9 Mail Charge

My letter was collected by Seguro Ndabene kept for sometime ,and he returned it. But he chose to add to my suffering. How?

He (a millionaire) did not pay the $9+ mailing fee leaving me to retrieve the rejection mail from an empty pocket! (it's still sitting at the post office)

AFRICAN CULTURE

Canada does not advocate that peoples should lose their culture-In Africa you do not scorn a person asking for -If you do not want to give-you tell him politely and give him water to drink-you help him get back to his home-you give succor , you do not not spite him or add to his problems.

Seguro Ndabene intentionally added to my financial woes by expecting me to pay $9+

HE HAS RIGHT TO REFUSE

Seguro has his right to refuse to help me but why not just pay the return mail or send an email to express his decision instead of adding more financial burden on me ? The old question comes to my mind. Are you a part of my problems or part of the solution?

As one of the 10 top citizens in Airdrie (Airdrieecho) he has reached celebrity status where there's need for a little more PR in this kind of matter.

He ( Seguro Ndabene ) has put me under more emotional stress than I had with this shoddy treatment from him . To me this is an intentional act by a lucky previledged man inflicting emotional pain on a poorer person due to what he intentionally did or did not do.

I am going to seek legal advise from Legal Aid and intend taking action on it.

Seguro Ndabene as a millionaire, has no financial excuse for this $9+ debacle. Why not just email me? That is mean-I can not decipher this meanness and WHY-

Yesterday I collected a cheque for $112 that's all the income from scarce menial jobs I did last week, bringing my total income from Dec 23 2009 till now to $157

I have not payed last month rent and have been told to move out--to where?

CTV, MetroNews, The VUE. Edmonton

I have iontacted CTV I sent a letter to Airdrie Echo.

Last month,when I was seeking help on a career issue- I emailed and talked to Metronews, another The Vue , but till now nobody has reached out to me, NOBODY IS LISTENING to me-

That's why I find it difficult not to think "do I not have right to be heard?".

I'm A Peace/ Human Rights Advocate-It's on Record

I am easy to find on internet (because of my past activities as a public speaker on Human Right issues) just check-Bayowa Adedeji and you will realize that I, I'm for real and have been involved for peace and human rights issues -Ive been nominated for Peace Medal Award by YMCA Calgary before ,also Fellowship nomination- CHIMUR Foundation-I've done school outreach in Alberta ,BC, Ontario talking about human rights and multiculturalism. I have been a guest on CTV BC Vicky Gaberrau Show due to these community activities.I keep tapes, pics,records of all these .

Asking for help is not what I enjoy doing as I've always worked to pay my way but these circumstances are just too much now-that I believe that there are still good people out there with enough to bail me out. If I do not ask-I may NEVER KNOW .

I was once a journalist in Africa and know the importance of human angle stories but it seems different here.

People talk to the press so as not to become 'the bigger story' when serious things later occur to that same person!
