The foreign-based model, and influencer also shed light on the journey of her initiative.She said:

“@elderlyfirst fis an NGO that is focused on elderly people. And we're registered in Nigeria. Some of these women are widows, some have no children, some are blind. I'm happy i can do little to brighten their day.“I can't understand what they're saying but i know they're praying for me in their local language.”

“If you've known me since my high school days, then you know I've always been a big fan of giving: From sharing my break money; to using my money to buy snacks for children even when i was doing my first degree.

“Not to brag but for a young girl using her own money to do charity is commendable.

“My sister @constyjay and my mum are always there to support me.”
