Crystal70200:
How Nigerians Helped Abandoned Mother Of Late Football Legend Rashidi Yekini


Late Rashidi Yekini remains Super Eagles's highest goal-scorer with 37 goals in 58 appearances (1984 - 1998). He will be remembered forever for scoring .
Nigeria's first FIFA World Cup goal in Dallas, USA, during the match against Bulgaria on June 21, 1994

His mother, Alhaja Sikiratu Yekini, lost all the support and was abandoned. A Good Samaritan gave the aged lady some money to maintain her small business, but it was barely enough for her to survive.

Some meaningful Nigerians heard this message, pitied the woman and raised funds for her! A bank account was opened on her behalf, and goods were bought for her mini store. Cash was also handed over to her to enable Alhaja Sikiratu Yekini attend to little errands.

A group of Good Samaritans, who were touched by the current status of the mother of the late former Nigerian football star Rashidi Yekini, have raised the sum of N290,000 for the octogenarian in less than 48 hours.

Suraj Tunji Oyewale, a successful chattered accountant based from Lagos, championed a course on his Facebook page for some monetary contribution for Mama Sikiratu Yekini after reading NAIJ.com's previous reports on what the woman has been going through.

"I want to thank all the people who put their hands in their pockets to help me, and I pray that God will be with you all," Mama Sikiratu said amidst tears to NAIJ.com upon receiving the donation.

On his own part, Suraj Tunji Oyewale promised to put Mama Sikiratu Yekini on a monthly pay for the next one year and, therefore, applauded all the people who stood by him to raise funds.

Nice one jarus.

I thought the lawyer said she was well taken care of. This proves differently.

It aches when you have to remember someone like yekini and your memory jumps to the family's uncomfortable position.

God bless everyone involved in this.

But I think the children and family members of Yekini have come out to debunk the news that the mama is suffering. I just hope some people will not be enriching their pockets using fake intention of opening an account and urging public to pay money into the acount

It's probably for sale (her business).

God's blessing and unimaginable lifting to every1 who partake in dignifying downtrodden in the society.

Where are the Yekini's daughters that was n air last week promising to to Yekini's house Ibadan t a Museum and raising a foundation for their late dad. They should come together and let Mama knows that Yekini is not dead.
Bravo to the Group an the initiator.

We cannot help everyone, but everyone can help someone.
