The Coalition of Orphanages and Children’s Homes in Nigeria (COCHIN), has commended David Adeleke, populalry called Davido ,for donating N250 million to orphanage homes across the country.

Chief Eze Ajoku, President of the Coalition, made the commendation in an Interview on Friday in Abuja.

Ajoku who commended the magnanimity and generosity of Davido, said he had restored confidence in the orphans who had long suffered neglect.

“Davido, May God bless you for remembering the orphanage homes who have suffered national neglect for decades now.

“With this singular donation, you have put smiles on the faces of those orphans the way their government is supposed to do it for them,” he said.

The Coalition President urged stakeholders to emulate Davido in rescuing orphanage homes from the doldrums of abandonment.

He advocated a collective effort of state and non-state actors to support proprietors of orphanage homes for improved welfare and care of orphans.

Ajoku said that the less privileged and vulnerable communities as Orphanage homes ought to be a direct responsibility of government and well to do Nigerians as it is done in other climes.

He, however, described Davido’s donation as a challenge to other rich persons in the country, urging them to rise to the occasion.

In addition to the N200 million Davido received from fans for his birthday, he made a personal donation of N50 million, bringing the total amount of money to N250 million to be distributed to orphanage homes across Nigeria.
