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.
