Nigerian Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke, better known by his stage name Davido, has once again shown his philanthropic spirit by donating a whopping N300 million to orphanages across Nigeria through his David Adeleke Foundation.
The Grammy-nominated artist, who recently celebrated his 30th birthday with a lavish party and gifts from his friends and fans, took to his X account on Tuesday to announce the donation. He said the donation is his yearly contribution to the nation and promised to share the details of the disbursement on Wednesday.
“I and my foundation pledge the sum of 300 million Naira to orphanages around Nigeria … as my yearly contribution to the Nation ❤️ … details of disbursement tomorrow,” he tweeted.
This is not the first time Davido has demonstrated his generosity and compassion for the less privileged. In November 2021, he marked his 29th birthday by donating N250 million to 292 orphanages across the country, saying that he had always wanted to use his platform to serve others.
Davido’s Foundation was established in 2022 with a strong desire and passion to continually assist others and create a proper framework for ongoing charitable works to benefit the good people of Nigeria
