Popular media personality, Toke Makinwa has come out to share a touching story about her experience with famous singer, D’banj. She recently had her say via her social media page, and fans have been reacting.
According to her, Dapo Oyebanjo is actually the only Nigerian man who has given her money without any strings attached, and the cash in question was a whopping 10 million naira donation at her book launch.
Toke added that she has been in D’banj’s corner since then because it was such a pleasant gesture.
Her words, “I was at a party one time and someone said this is D’banj and I was like, ‘Hi,’ and he goes, ‘I’m going to be the biggest thing out of Africa.’ That’s the kind of confidence this nigga had.
Then I was in banking and he entertained us all night. Then, many years later, I started my career and I wrote a book, He came to my book launch and pledged 10 million naira. He paid it the next morning and never asked for anything in return.
He is the only Nigerian man I know who has given me free money and didn’t ask, ‘What are you doing later?’ Or can I call you later?’ He is the only Nigerian man! He gave me 10 fucking million naira and this was many years ago. I fuck with him!”
WOW.
