Nigerian multibillionaire businessman, Femi Otedola has donated five million to the family of Sodiq Olayode, who recently welcomed quadruplets.
The billionaire donated the funds through his foundation, the Femi Otedola Foundation weeks after kind-hearted Nigerians rallied around for the couple, raising over N19 million Naira.
Philip Akinola presented the cheque of N5 million on Monday, August 12th, on behalf of the foundation.
Otedola also offered scholarships for two children’s education to the university level.
Sharing the news on X.com on Monday night, James wrote, “Guyssssssssssssssssss, Guess what ????
“#realFemiOtedola sent representatives to offer a cheque of N5m to the parents of the quadruplets, and also he offered a scholarship for the education of two of their kids till university. I’m in tears, guys.”
The Olayode family’s story became a social media sensation after a colleague, Oyeniran James, shared the family’s predicament on the microblogging platform X, formerly Twitter in July.
James revealed how Olayode lamented that the quadruplets used 105 diapers in six days.
The couple, who initially expected a single child, were surprised by the arrival of quadruplets – two boys and two girls.
In a remarkable display of solidarity, donations flooded in from individuals and organisations alike to the tune of 19m.
Otedola’s donation follows Airtel Nigeria’s contribution of N2m to the family.
