David Adeleke known better as the artiste, Davido, recently said being
charitable to strangers was his way of giving back to the society.
In an interview, he gave an example of a time he supported a woman
with cancer because “I wanted to help give another person a second
chance at life, my late mum didn’t have that. The woman’s death will
affect so many people so helping save her is also helping make so many
others happy,” he reportedly said.
Davido continues:
“I always try to give anytime I see a chance to help or encourage
people; I can walk into any restaurant even though I am a star, order a
plate of food that is worth N500 and give the seller N50,000. That’s my
way of giving back to the society, that’s my way of encouraging the
hustle of fellow Nigerians.”
“I don’t do it for publicity, unlike the time I gave N1m to a cancer
patient , the media made it well known but it is was not my intention to
make it a media affair but due to the fact that I am a celebrity, it
goes out there.”
