Davido’s Scholarship to Sponsor Students through University
It seems like Aye singer Davido is trying to outdo his father Dr. Adeleke in the art of philanthropy as the youngster is expanding his philanthropic reach beyond cash and jewelry.
Recall that Davido took to instagram to celebrate his father, Chief Adeleke, revealing that over 100 students who recently graduated from the billionaire’s privately owned- Adeleke University were on various scholarship programmes.
The HKN and DMW boss who days ago signed RCA Records has decided to invest in the critical educational sector.
The Money crooner is setting up a foundation- Veronica Adeleke Education Scholarship program, in honour of his late mother which will kick off this year with the promise to sponsor students to the university every year through its machinery.
The ‘Owo ni Koko’ singer who also has a multi million dollar deal with Sony BMG, took to his instagram to share his latest philanthropic endeavour stressing that “so may people deserve education.” He announced that he will start the scholarship programme with 4 students this year and continue as the years progress.
“So many people deserve education.. Starting from this year I plan to start the Veronica Adeleke Education Scholarship program .. I plan to send people to school every year … I’m starting from 4 students this year details will be released soon on how to apply…. DO YOUR PART TO MAKE THE WORLD BETTER , EVEN IF YOU START SMALL .. AT LEAST START! OBO!” he captioned a picture of himself beach-side as he made the announcement.
