WATCH: Men buy friend a car because they are ‘tired of picking him up’

A heartwarming video of a group of friends showing their friend his new car has been circulating on social video. In the video that has been viewed more than 500 000 times, the friend breaks down in disbelief, asking his friends if they were pulling his leg.

“What do you mean it’s my car?” asks the friend.

One of the men responds: “It’s your car, man, you’ll be driving now. We’re tired of picking you up. Everyone is tired of picking you up.”

While some on social media said they were inspired by the group, others said they would never get tired of picking their friends up.

Others, however, said the whole thing was staged.

Maybe a wiper. Not the whole car,” while Karen Sekele said: “Women like power and people begging them. Most feel like the own you bcoz if you need to go somewhere, you’ll have to ask them and if you stop asking they get angry. Well done guys for uplifting a brother. I overhead someone(background) saying: “we’re tired of picking you up” Wow, instead of running away from him you came up with a solution. God will continue to bless you guy. This is true friendship.”

Others said it was time they changed friends.
