@Congratulations pato you are a true role model for the next generation big ups to you.
Nigerians being Nigerians, there were few others who also reacted by saying he probably should have used the money for something else, or even doing something in his own home town. Regardless of those comments, we’re truly grateful that he did something amazing for the people he calls his own and we hope to see more of his generosity in the coming days.
