BBNaija reality star and billionaire son, Kiddwaya, has called for financial support from Nigerians following the crisis in Benue State, which claimed many lives.

Kiddwaya, who is a native of Benue, on Wednesday, June 18, through his foundation, launched a nationwide appeal, calling on Nigerians to unite and support affected communities.

In a statement shared via his social media pages, Kiddwaya's foundation highlighted the devastating impact of the violent attacks in Benue, which has left countless families displaced, grieving, and in urgent need of food, shelter, and other amenities.

Providing account details where money could be donated to, the foundation disclosed that it would accept amounts as low as N500.

The statement read in part,

“At the Kiddwaya Foundation, we are mobilizing resources to provide food, shelter, and essential support to those affected. But we can’t do it alone we need your help.”

The Kiddwaya Foundation emphasized that although it has begun mobilizing resources, it cannot face the crisis alone. It called on individuals, institutions, and well-meaning Nigerians to contribute whatever they can be it ₦500 or ₦500,000 stressing that “every naira counts, every effort matters.

Whether it’s your platform, your voice, or your time donate, share, get involved. Let’s remind the world that Nigerians don’t abandon their own in times of need,” the appeal urged.
