Reality star Kiddwaya (son of billionaire Terry Waya) has launched a donation drive for Benue attack victims via his foundation, urging Nigerians to contribute "even ₦500." This follows his recent Instagram posts showcasing private jet travels, 5-star hotels, and a reported €70,000 theft at a Spanish hotel.
- Benue Crisis: Over 200 killed in recent attacks, with 3000+ displaced (per local NGOs).
- Celebrity Paradox: Kiddwaya’s lavish lifestyle clashes with donation appeals.
- Public Backlash: Nigerians question why a billionaire heir seeks public funds.
A modern fable of two Nigerias. When the son of wealth begs alms from the poor, it reveals our fractured social contract. Kiddwaya’s jet casts a shadow over his charity, like a man offering crumbs from a stolen loaf. But must suffering always be crowdsourced? Benue’s bloodied soil demands more than hashtag philanthropy while elites treat compassion as a PR accessory. True allyship would land his private jet in Makurdi, not Marbella.
