Otedola donates N5bn for north-east intervention
Femi Otedola, billionaire entrepreneur, has donated N5 billion to Save the Children, the 100-year United Kingdom-based charity, to support its intervention in the north-east.
This is arguably the largest individual donation to charity in Nigeria’s history.
Otedola made the donation on Sunday evening at an event organised by the Cuppy Foundation to raise funds for Save the Children, which is the biggest children-focused organisation in the world after UNICEF.
Cuppy Foundation is the non-profit organisation founded by his daughter, Florence Ifeoluwa Otedola (aka DJ Cuppy).
