Clement Nicki, our hero amidst the norm...
An incident that occurred last March has got many South Africans praising a petrol attendant from Ramsgate, KZN on social media.
Laine Herman, a fairly new resident at the time to the south coast, was stuck at the petrol station with car problems.
Her vehicle was low on oil and was not selecting gears, which left her feeling distressed.
Noticing that she was distressed, petrol attendant, Clement Nicki approached her to help.
Herman shared with him that she was new to the area and that her kids needed to be fetched from school but now her car was giving her issues.
"“This amazing petrol attendant (Clement) without any thought asked me if I could drive a manual - before I knew it he parked his car next to me with the keys in the ignition and continued work as normal. I managed to fetch my kids on time." (MSN)
The level of trust that he displayed with her shows how grounded he is.
Clement went further to assist by contacting a tow truck to collect her car and even helped with someone to fix Herman's vehicle.

IOL contacted Clement for a comment and this is what he had to say:
"I could see that the lady was stressed out because she was talking about her kids. I said that it must be tough because they were new to the area. The kids probably didn't have any friends or know anyone.
“I felt bad for her kids and so I leant her my car. I think she was a bit surprised because she asked me whose car this is. I said it's mine and you can use it,” Nicki said."
His kindness surpasses many things that we would not expect a stranger to help with, but leaves us feeling extremely grateful for people like Clement...
Thank you Clement for teaching us about selflessness.
