Kiddwaya Subjected To Criticism Over Appeal For Donation For Benue Killings
Popular Big Brother Naija season 5 contestant, Terseer Kidd Waya, best known as Kiddwaya, has been subjected to immense criticism for soliciting for monetary donations from Nigerians.
Recall that The Nigerian Voice reported that around 200 people were killed in an attack on Yelwata, Guma Local Government Area of Benue State.
Following the massacre, many well-meaning Nigerians have criticized the government for failing to address the incessant killings, with several celebrities joining the public outcry.
Taking to his X handle, Kiddwaya urged the public to donate to his NGO to support the victims of the Benue killings.
“At the Kiddwaya Foundation, we’re mobilizing resources to provide food, shelter, and essential support to those affected. But we can’t do it alone; we need your help.”
Kiddwaya's call for donations was met with resistance and immense criticism on social media, with many pointing out his flamboyant lifeclass, and describing his call for donations as a means to "scam the public."
Following the heavy backlash, Kiddwaya deleted the call for monetary donations tweet from his X handle.
