Abbas became a social media sensation after videos of him directing World Cup fans to the Metro station made rounds on the internet. 

Metro Man said before leaving the country, he had applied for a job as a security man but upon arrival, he was tasked to guide people on a daily basis.

"Coming here, I knew I was going to work as a security man, but I later discovered that my task was to guide people, help them find a way, incase they are lost," he said.
