Socialite Obi Iyiegbu aka Obi Cubana has expressed excitement after media personality Daddy Freeze found a hawker who appeared in a viral video earlier in the week giving money to some persons in Ajah, Lagos being transported to a correctional facility.
Obi Cubana had promised to sponsor the hawker Jeremiah Ekuma to the university of his choice, saying he was touched by his charitable deed.
“Love should be shown in our actions and not just in our words. I want to meet the young boy who despite being a hawker, gave N100 notes to people in a prison van and was not even aware that he was been filmed by a concerned passerby who was driving on the same road,” Obi Cubana told Daddy Freeze in an Instagram Live session on Saturday.
“Anyone who knows him should connect the boy with Daddy Freeze or me. I want him to go to school in good condition, and I would see him through the university, and if he wants to do his masters degree abroad, I would also make sure that he is comfortable while going to school because his generosity touched me.
“I would do whatever he wants for him, and by God’s grace, when he is done in school he would get a top-level position at any of my organisations, and if he, however, finds a higher calling, he is free to do as he pleases. The most important thing is that I want him to know that he now has a mentor who would guide him through this tough world.”
Daddy Freeze on Saturday night held a live session on Instagram with Jeremiah and called on Obi Cubana.
The nightlife entrepreneur left a comment on the post which reads, “Great. We take it from here.”
Obi Cubana had said in the interview that he found his alleged links to illicit drugs by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) repulsive.
