Boy who Built a Replica of Overhead Borno Bridge Gets US Scholarship, His Mum Gets N1m & Dad a Job

A young boy’s talent has become the catalyst for the upliftment of his family as a construction company has taken note of it.

The young Nigerian lad identified as Musa Sani had become an internet sensation after a replica of the Borno state overhead bridge he built with locally-sourced materials went viral.

The blessing went around his family

Sharing snaps of Musa and his creation on Twitter, a Nigerian tweep with the handle @OvieNews announced that a construction company, Ronchess Global Resources, has offered Musa university scholarship to study in the United States.

@OvieNews who said he was contacted by the company’s CEO, added that the construction establishment also gifted Musa’s mum the sum of N1 million to start a business, while his father was given a job.

They also promised to enroll Musa’s siblings in good schools and will move the family to a furnished apartment in Maiduguri.
