Exactly. Late felix Okugbe told me an incredible story that I will share here even though I don’t like threads.

He took a guy as part of his production team to france. The French embassy asked him to sign an agreement that they were all going to return to Nigeria which he did. https://twitter.com/booday10/status/1274212709941293057
This guy had lived in Spain and was deported after physically abusing his wife on several occasions. He got to Nigeria and realized his family had sold everything he had built. He wanted to go back to Europe at all cost. Felix took him to france and told him he must return.
This guy was suffering from diabetes. They left for france and while in france. Felix asked one of his crew members to constantly monitor this guy so he doesn’t disappear. They finished their project and were on their way back to Nigeria . While on transit in Amsterdam, this guy
Passed out. (Not dead, That one na pass away). Felix was furious as he had thought he was acting so he does not return to Nigeria. The ambulance arrived at the airport in elecooter and swiftly checked the guy’s blood sugar level. And they said. This guy can’t fly as he would be
Dead before they got to Nigeria. Felix insisted he must be allowed to fly. They yelled at him to keep quiet or get arrested for wanting an almost dead man to fly. He then made videos for his record to the embassy in Nigeria. This guy was airlifted to the hospital, treated and
And wait for it! He was given a residence permit on humanitarian grounds. This guy lives today in Holland. Nobody cared about wether he had health insurance or not but they first saved his life because that is all that matterd and then they gave him a chance to make it again.
