Man puts smile on strangers’ faces

In the video shared by @justdebola on TikTok, the man’s amazing acts of kindness were captured.

He walked up to random buses and commercial drivers and offered to pay the transport fares of all the passengers.

Accompanying the video, he explained that his intention was not to seek praise but to inspire others to cultivate kindness.

He further stated that his battery had gone flat, which resulted in some clip being lost. Nevertheless, the essence of his goodwill remained clear.

In his words:

“Day 19 – 61 of kindness. My camera went off. I didn’t realize until I was done paying for a couple of other vehicles and it was getting late for me to head back home. I got home and when I realized most of the videos didn’t record. I didn’t feel bad because, y’all already get the whole point of why I make these videos, which is to inspire us to be kind and stay kind to one another.”
