He made the donation through his daughter Tolani at Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja, on Sunday.
Tolani said, “My father, Mr Femi Otedola, has been at the forefront of supporting worthy causes. It is in this spirit that he will be donating the sum of N5bn to the children of Borno, Adamawa and Katsina through Save the Children.”
Cuppy’s godfather, Dangote, who is the owner of the Dangote Group, also made a donation of N100m.
Dangote said, “It gives me great pleasure to be here supporting my brother, Femi. I believe we need more Nigerians to have big hearts to give back to the needy.”To Cuppy, I must congratulate you for having a big heart to visit those children in Borno. She spent about four days with them. In the light of this, I am making a donation of N100m.”

The young philanthropist, who is also an ambassador of the Save the Children UK, a non-governmental organisation, said her foundation, which was launched in August 2018, was inspired by a trip to Maiduguri, Borno State.
Miss Otedola says she started the foundation as a way of giving back to the less fortunate.

DeleteGod bless Otedola and family, and everyone else that made donations. It’s not easy to pull out such amount this time.
ReplyDeleteHe only gave her his tax. FIRS wont be getting any money for otedola anytime soon. Lol
DeleteThis is commendable
ReplyDeleteWay to go. Just forget totallymusic & Dj hustles, those ones no be ur calling.
ReplyDeleteAnon 10.40 you're wicked lol
DeleteIf she didn't start with Dj job she wont have the platform to do all the charity work she's doing today.
DeleteAs in ehhh. And i love how the father support all of them and it good the money was given to her daughter, she will use it well than all this hungry celebrities using charity to live large
ReplyDeleteAudio billion
ReplyDeleteReal audio billion o, 5 billion ko, billion 5 ni.
DeleteHmmmmmmmm Thomas 😕
DeleteI froze when I heard that 5bn. Uncle Otedola, I miss you. Bit truth be told, Otedola has a good heart of giving those who cant afford it
ReplyDeleteThis is what privilege is
ReplyDeleteHigh society
ReplyDeleteWow!! When your father Is a billionaire what more do you need? Nice one.
ReplyDeleteHmmm! Daddy where are you? I wan open foundation for the needy.
ReplyDeleteEven you gan na needy
DeleteLMAO! Wayment 😭😭😭
DeleteAnon this is brutal
Delete5 billion? Ok o. We hear.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, it's a good thing to give back, not everyone can give back to people they don't know.
By fire by force femi must use aliko money shine.
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed a smart move and strategic positioning for cups which I commend him for doing to support his daughter. DJ no be work. She can have it at the side business. This gala or warever is the only way she can climb the ladder and join the intellectuals Running things in the country. Point 1; if the support wasn’t for northern nigeria, aliko might not support because that’s where his focus is (even with his foundation) for the next 5years especially the Northeast.
2. FO mentioning 5bila is just a way to set the tone for the day. We all know how donations/fund raisings are all over the world. People promise to save face and never fulfill obligations.
This event we can confirm 100Mila from aliko and probably 20mila combined from all others. call me a hater but it is what it is
Your head correct. The rest na audio billion
DeleteOn point
DeleteSanest comment on here. You know the drill.
DeleteGBAM! GBAMMER!! GBAMEST!!!!
DeleteThank you Anon 10:56. Even dangote May Not chuck out 100m at once. It would be over a period or Cuppy foundation will latch on his current projects in the NE as a sponsor.
Delete5 billion from where?
DeleteDangote was the only donor. Others dey fear. Pledge money and efcc shall visit. Magu eyes on them.
DeleteAudio money,
DeleteWow. Nice
ReplyDeleteWow. Nice
ReplyDeleteMoney is gud
ReplyDeleteSee guest list!
ReplyDeleteGod will bless Otedola immensely. A wonderful philanthropist.
ReplyDeleteMoney laundering things. Na today? Of course the children will get a slice of the cake but EFCC gat nothing on NGOs. Why do you think every Naija celeb now runs an NGO/foundation? 5% of 2billion na wetin? Easy money. Soft werk!
ReplyDeleteIt’s the best way to launder money.
Delete5 billion 😳... see guest list, I can imagine the total amount that will be donated at the end with that guest list I’m seeing
ReplyDelete5 Billion indeed! Audio money. That was just announced to up the game from other donations....Otedola may have 5 Billion in assets but definitely not liquid enough to give that amount to a foundation. 1 Billion I may have believed but 5? Naaaaa.
ReplyDeleteOtedola is owing banks a lot of money. 5 billion is audio donation
DeleteYou mean after somebody removes 5billion from his pocket he will still have something left? Chai money you no de try. This life is a lot of beans and here we are looking for small change. Otedola is sha an amazing Father money or no money he supports his kids a 101%.
ReplyDeleteOh,oh,🎵who is your Daddy?🎶 OTEDOLA💃💃🎼
ReplyDeleteNaso ooooo when you lay good foundation for your children this is part of what you will experience
DeleteTo think that I and cuppy have a striking resemblance, I need to have a hrt to hrt talk with my mum. Congratulations sis and cheers to a greater height
ReplyDelete🤣🤣 you really need the heart to heart talk.
DeleteHahahaaaaaa
DeleteCongratulations Cuppy... She's loved.
ReplyDeleteOtedola the gentlemanly daddy
Did I hear well ni 5kini
ReplyDeleteI dont believe this, its a strategy tbo he'd be donating but not up to a billion sef. By the way, the issue is not helping these kids, its finding a splution that is long lasting to eradicate insurgencies creating more displaced kids......
ReplyDeleteMake una calm down! Theres something called CSR. When companies do CSR, they use tax monies to for community development. Otedola is just tired of giving his tax money to FIRS thieves, so he made a smart move by using it to set his daughter up for life. Great business man!!
ReplyDeletePlease be advised that the 5BN is not tax deductible i.e. such an amount will not be taken into computation for the purpose of tax computations.
DeleteMoney laundering/tax avoidance/positioning things. If you know you know.
ReplyDeleteCuppy’s birthday is today.
ReplyDeleteBig time Audio Money
