Alex Iwobi Says His Parents Taught Him The Art Of Giving

Super Eagles and Fulham midfielder Alex Iwobi says his parents played a central role in teaching him the value of giving and caring for others. He explained that many of his charitable activities today are shaped by simple acts of kindness he watched at home while growing up. Iwobi recalled how his father would leave bottles of water outside for waste collectors and support people around their neighbourhood in small but consistent ways. Those little gestures, he said, showed him that helping others does not always require grand resources, only a genuine desire to make life easier for people. He noted that this mindset now guides his approach to community work. For him, success as a footballer is not just about goals and trophies, but also about using his platform to give back. In recent years, Iwobi has organised charity […]

US Soldier Drives Through 48 States to Fight Homelessness

A Nigerian-American soldier, Yewande Fagunwa, also known as Olori Wendy, has completed a 31-day drive across all 48 contiguous US states to raise awareness about homelessness. Her journey, which began on August 1st, was a decade-long dream. To understand the plight of the homeless, she lived out of her rented car, sleeping in the driver's seat at truck stops and rest areas. The trip was challenging, with mechanical troubles and harsh weather causing delays. Beyond the drive, her mission was one of compassion. At stops along the way, she handed out cash and relief items to homeless individuals, listening to their stories and sharing her own temporary experience of living without a home. She successfully completed her tour of the 48 states, leaving only Alaska and Hawaii for a future journey.

Where Did Waka Waka Royalties for Africa Go?

Fifteen years after the electrifying success of “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)”—the official anthem of the 2010 FIFA World Cup—questions are resurfacing about the fate of the royalties meant to benefit African charities. Despite its global smash—garnering over 4.3 billion views on YouTube and almost a billion Spotify streams—evidence of charitable distribution remains unclear. According to Freshlyground, the South African band that collaborated with Shakira on the track, clarity has been elusive. Co-founder Simon Attwell revealed that while the original agreement stated proceeds would aid African causes, the details of the charity beneficiaries have shifted over time from being chosen by artists to being allocated solely by Shakira, then handed over to FIFA’s “20 Centres for 2010” initiative. But here’s the twist—the “20 Centres for 2010” campaign reportedly concluded in 2014. That means royalties have continued flowing ever since, […]
