Our experience filming Kwara’s blue-eyed family

As they say, a picture tells a story better than a thousand words. But in my opinion, I think a video tells a story better than a thousand pictures.

After the call, Phylix said me and my colleague were chosen to go for an assignment outside Lagos and it was scheduled for the next day. I was so pumped for the journey. It was about the two kids with blue eyes and their mother. I reasoned that we had a problem on our hands. How do we express sympathy and get our story to Lagos early enough? How do we introduce ourselves to the blue-eyed lady who was one of the mourners? Already, the eyes of the sympathisers surveyed us as we alighted from a tricycle with backpacks. We were lucky that the blue-eyed lady approached us and found a quiet place for us somewhere in the compound .

While the interview was on somewhere in their compound, the mourners increased and Risikat left to join her family members. About one hour and 30 minutes after we got to her residence, we concluded the session though unable to speak with her mother. Oyindamola came with her siblings and we spoke with her alongside one of her siblings who initially noticed the girls.

With a scream of joy, I informed my colleague who was attending to other issues in the hotel room where we lodge after sending the video for editing. After the interview, we collected Risikat’s account details as we already guessed that many people would want to help her and her daughters. We went for another story in Ilorin and left for Osogbo thereafter to speak with the family members of a young man who was in a coma for three days after a cop on patrol hit his head with a gun.
