The Ghanaian content creator, identified as Junior Baby Jet, posted a 'memory lane' video on his TikTok account, recounting how he first met his struggling friend and how he is doing his best to help his friend get back on his feet.
Captioning the video as 'I'm just doing my best to help my schoolmate,' the young friend could be seen going from looking a bit malnourished to looking good and healthier thanks to Junior Baby Jet.
Junior Baby Jet's followers also recalled their hilarious first encounter, when the content creator questioned him after he claimed to have stolen bread out of hunger. The friend then chose to shelter him from that moment on.
At that moment, the young man appeared malnourished and downcast, but the strides he has made since then are significant, and now he appears to be healthy and doing well.
The video stood out not just for the good deed, but also for the schoolmate’s unintentional English blunder, which added comic relief to an otherwise serious situation.
