Davido: N300mn To Ophanages - How Far?

Afrobeats Singer Davido and Online Critic Daniel Regha

Controversial Twitter User and Critic, Daniel Regha has called out Davido for not giving an update about the 300 million he promised to orphans. 

Recall that Davido had announced his intentions to donate a sum of “300 million naira to orphanages around Nigeria as his yearly contribution to the nation and promised to give details of the disbursement. 

However, Daniel took to his X handle to call out the singer pointing out his concerns over the disbursement of the money to these orphanages. 

He wrote: “Davido is yet to provide any update as promised concerning the “300 million Naira” pledged to orphanages around Nigeria; Correct me if I’m wrong but out of the 427 eligible orphanage homes set to benefit from the donation, fewer than 10 have acknowledged receiving anything. Again, an update was supposed to be provided between the 1st & 2nd week of March 2024.” 

According to Daniel Regha, only ten orphanage homes out of four-hundred-and-twenty-seven have acknowledged the receipt of money from Davido. 

A few months back, Davido released a statement through his foundation, detailing how the money would be disbursed while apologizing for the delay in communication. 

Davido’s foundation claimed that there was a bit of a hitch in locating orphanage homes all across Nigeria, because some of them had changed location.
