Arewa Youths Trust Foundation (AYTF) has urged the committee disbursing the N250 million donated by music act David Adeleke (Davido) to orphanage homes to show integrity and be fair in the distribution.

In a rare humanitarian gesture to mark his 29th birthday, #Davido decided to give the N201 million from his crowdfunding appeal to fans and fellow musicians to charity.

Davido, who, in three days, got N201 million from friends and well-wishers, added N50 million of his own and said he intended to give all the money to the less privileged.

AYTF urged the singer to keep the committee in check and ensure effective distribution, especially in the northern parts of the country where there were large numbers of orphans and vulnerable households.

It said N251 million if shared judiciously, would ameliorate and suppress the plight and suffering of selected orphans across the country.

Some officials of Wema Bank, who has been the beneficiary of Davido’s money challenge, travelled to Dubai to meet with him.

This is coming a day after Davido revealed that the bank wants to meet him.

Sharing a photo from the meeting, Davido’s lawyer, Bobo Ajudua said, “Wema Bank family touch down from Lagos!”

Reposting the photo, Davido said, “Wema Bank couldn’t wait.”

Dikeh said this while responding to a comment urging her to return Kpokpogri’s car on Stella Dimoko Korkus Instagram page. She asked, “Has he returned my brand new Hilux I bought for him? Shouldn’t he answer to blackmailing me with my sex tape illegally recorded or the release of a vulnerable moment illegally recorded and released?” Answering her own questions, Dikeh said, “In my own opinion, he deserves no mercy, let the law prevail.”

Nollywood actress and filmmaker, Shan George has told Chinwetalu Agu to own up to his fight, and stop denying the Biafran outfit he wore.

The actress was reacting to the trending video of veteran actor Chinwetalu Agu, denying his outfit isn’t affiliated with the Biafran flag after he was arrested by the military.

According to her, asking for freedom should be everyone’s right and Chinwetalu Agu is no different, but he should own his outfit and fight with his full chest instead of speaking “rising sun English”.

Shan George also stated that the veteran Nollywood actor didn’t possess any firearms or do any violence, hence she personally sees nothing wrong in fighting for freedom peacefully.

She took to social media to write;

“My dear brother, u r clearly wearing a Biafra flag, and u should own it with ur full chest. I don’t get all d rising sun English u r speaking.
