James Robertson is the Detroit man who walks 21 miles to and from work every day and
has been doing so for 10 years. It all started with a story in Sunday's Detroit Free Press and has
blossomed into a phenomenon. A complete stranger even started a
GoFundMe for Robertson, which has now collected more than $300,000.The outpouring of support for the so-called 'Walking Man' continues to roll in, and Friday he was surprised with a new car at Suburban Ford in Sterling Heights.
Robertson, 56, was greeted with a round of applause at the dealership Friday.
He looked as if he might cry as he checked out his new car, a red Taurus.
He says he doesn't just like his new car, "I love it," he said.
Finally a new ride for the man whose 1988 Honda sedan broke down 10 years ago. view pictures after the cut...
Congrats to him, but wait o does this mean if we start walking to work abroad for some years people will buy us cars? lol. not in Naija sha.
