Femi Otedola Foundation (FOF) has gifted N5 million to the family of Sodiq Olayode, whose wife Abiodun recently gave birth to quadruplets.
Last month, an X user identified as James, who is a friend
of Sodiq, revealed that the family needed financial assistance to care for
their quadruplets.
The post quickly gained attention, with several users
donating over N14 million to support the couple.
Similarly, the foundation set up by Otedola, the billionaire businessman, on Monday, presented a cheque of N5 million to the family of eight.
The cheque was presented by Philip Akinola on behalf of the
foundation.
Otedola, who is known for giving to needy individuals,
coordinated groups, and social causes, decided to intervene after reading the
story of the Olayodes in TheCable.
In an interview with TheCable Lifestyle, Abiodun pleaded
with Nigeria’s first lady to come to the aid of the family.
“I hope that the
first lady (Remi Tinubu) will see this and come to my aid and come and support
my family in any way they can. I hope my children will get scholarships,” she
said.
“I kept on saying education is paramount to me. As I said, I
am an outsourced staff at Sterling. I planned for one. But here we are having
four. The first lady, I hope you are seeing this. Please come to my aid.”
