COCHIN Thanks Davido For Donating N300 Million To Orphanage Homes In Nigeria

The Coalition of Orphanages and Children’s Homes in Nigeria (COCHIN) has appreciated afrobeats superstar Davido, for his generous support.

KanyiDaily recalls that Davido promised to donate N300 million to orphanages across Nigeria in February.

In a letter addressed to Davido and posted on his X page on Thursday, May 30, COCHIN president, Dr. Eze Ajoku confirmed the donation and thanked the singer for his generosity.

Ajoku noted that no other Nigerian or government had ever supported the orphanages the way Davido did.

He revealed that a total of 42 out of 52 orphanages under the coalition benefited from the donation, assuring that the funds would be used to improve the children’s lives.

The statement addressed to Davido reads, “Our heartfelt appreciation for your financial support to the coalition of orphanages and children’s homes in Nigeria (COCHIN).

“In reference to the above, we write on behalf of the above association (the umbrella body of orphanages and Children’s homes in Nigeria) to acknowledge the receipt of your support funds to our members across the country in February 2024.

“We are pleased to inform you that a total of 42 orphanages out of the 52 under the coalition benefitted from the funds’ support.

“Permit me to therefore extend our (COCHIN’s) sincere and deepest gratitude for this generous support.

“We are very happy to note that no other Nigerian has ever done this for the orphanages, nor has the government given us such magnanimous support before.

“This support which is a demonstration of your commitment to social responsibility and loving care to these forgotten Nigerian children will go a very long way in making a profound impact in their lives.

“These less privileged children and orphans are grateful that you have done this for them as well as inspiring those of us who are the managers in the implementation of sustainable caregiving initiatives generally.

“While assuring you of our dedication to ensuring judicious use of the resources, we exercise no doubt that you will continue to be a beacon of hope for the less privileged.

“Do accept the warm regards of our highest esteem. May our God increase you in every aspect and grant you good health.”

Meanwhile, Davido is making headlines in the cryptocurrency world with the launch of his own meme coin called $Davido.
