Femi Otedola Donates N5 Million and Scholarships to Quadruplet Family
Femi Otedola, the renowned billionaire businessman, has extended a generous gift to the family of Sodiq Olayode, who recently welcomed quadruplets.
Otedola’s philanthropy through the Femi Otedola Foundation (FOF) has led to a significant donation of 5 million Naira to support the Olayode family.
Additionally, the foundation has committed to providing scholarships for two of the quadruplets, covering their education up to the university level.
This act of kindness follows a social media appeal from James, a friend of Sodiq, who highlighted the family’s urgent need for financial help.
The appeal garnered widespread attention, resulting in donations surpassing 14 million Naira from various individuals.
On Monday, Philip Akinola, representing the Femi Otedola Foundation, presented the cheque of 5 million Naira to the Olayodes. Otedola’s well-known commitment to charitable causes and support for individuals in need prompted his intervention after learning about the family’s situation.
In response to this generosity, Abiodun Olayode, the mother of the quadruplets, expressed her hope that First Lady Remi Tinubu would also offer support.
She emphasized the critical importance of education for her children and shared her personal challenges, noting that she had only planned for one child but was now caring for four. Abiodun’s plea was a heartfelt request for additional assistance to help secure her children’s future.

‘Government Prioritizes Money More’ — PDP Calls Out FG On New Tax Law
It has been shared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is calling on the federal government to suspend the tax law set to take effect on January 1, 2026.
This was revealed in a statement released by Ini Ememobong, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP. He stated that this new law shows how Nigerians and the masses will be affected, arguing that the government is prioritizing finance over security and other pressing matters.
“Rather than address these issues comprehensively, the Presidency has consciously minimized them and instead insisted that the commencement date must stand, despite the discrepancies,” the party said, adding that this “clearly shows where the priority of the government lies between Nigerians and money.”
