Unilag student who lives in slum gets N10M, free accommodation
In a heartwarming turn of events, a UNILAG student, Aminat Ajikobi Adejoke who lives in a flooded slum receives a life-changing sum of N10 million.
Some weeks ago, the video of Aminat trended on social media after being visited by a philanthropist, Osita Popcorn who captured the state of the student’s home.
Well-meaning Nigerians extended the gesture of donation to the young student whose mother is late and fends for herself in the slum while schooling at the University of Lagos.
Overflowing with gratitude, she publicly thanked her fellow Nigerians for their immediate support while stating how the generosity of her compatriots has truly transformed her circumstances.
Aminat also expressed appreciation for the assistance provided by Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRasak.
Additionally, the university offered her fully funded accommodation, as shown by @ositapopcorn on his TikTok page while handing her the N10M cheque.
She also secured an off-campus apartment—a peaceful retreat for relaxation after her studies.
