Lagos Ex-Guber Hopeful Distributes Money To Less Privileged

The 2019 Gubernatorial Candidate of the Alliance for Democracy (AD) in Lagos State, Chief Owolabi Salis yesterday began the second batch of distribution of money to the less privileged in the state.
The money was part of palliatives to cushion the effect of COVID-19 lockdown on the masses.
Our source reports that the first batch of the monetary palliatives which began on Monday, was done through various WhatsApp groups he belonged to.
Owolabi, a philanthropist who currently resides in the U.S., took to his WhatsApp group, urging each member to send in names and bank account numbers of 10 less privileged persons in their areas for payments.
In a group of about 200, each person provided accounts of 10 persons which the AD chieftain forwarded to his accountant for instant payments that were immediately confirmed by the various recipients.
The elated recipients who did not even know where the money originated from as the philanthropist refused to send in his name, were full of prayers for the donor for the kind gesture.
Speaking on the palliatives and why he refused to use his name for recipients to know, Salis said: “I did not do it for them to recognise me. I did it out of the genuine love and care I have for humanity.
