Doroboss; Don Jazzy Responded To A Fan In-need (photos) by Mayadiva(f): 12:16pm On Oct 11, 2014 |
If you’re on Facebook, I am certain you are no stranger to messages like this from strangers you’ve never met: “Hi my name is blah blah blah, I need your help please…my account number is…My God will reward you richly. Thank you” The Internet is crawling with messages like the one above. Ninety percent of those messages are usually brushed aside as scam and forgotten in the same moment they are received. In Nigeria, many of us believe these scams have diabolical connections, so it easy to understand why some of us never get past the first few lines of those messages let-alone send a reply. When you are living in a community riddled with stories of ” touch and follow”, “stolen private parts”, “419” and “good luck bandits” in a twisted sort of way it’s only rational that your mind could become paranoid when faced with strangers in need; even when those faces are harmless avatars on the profiles of a social media network. Occasionally, I wonder about the number of persons who – after exploring every other option their pride could permit to change a troubling situation – resort to social media networks to seek help, only to be met with cold shoulders because their troubling situation did not have the good fortune to trend on twitter. A few days ago, a young man; David James Jay, circulated an emotional letter on Facebook and Twitter about his personal struggles. I found two things interesting about his story, namely; his need and the reaction of the public to his situation. Concerning his need; David isn’t dying of Ebola, his sister isn’t one of the missing girls and there is nothing wrong with his kidney. He is simply a computer science student who needs ten thousand naira (N10,000) to complete his savings to buy a computer in order to make the most of his university education. (Read James’ Story) Perhaps the concept of a workman in need of work tools is not as emotionally persuasive as a story of rape or starving children. And this could explain why no one (except Don Jazzy who recently sent James the sum of thirty thousand Naira) batted an eyelid to the young man’s tragic tale which in many ways is symbolic of the Nigerian situation today; a rising case of half baked professionals and students with no access to proper learning resources, gearing up to manage an economy that aims to compete actively on the global stage. I spoke with Mr David on the phone recently (his contact number is available on both his Facebook message and twitter profile), He confirmed that he has almost raised the complete money for his computer and he is very grateful to Don Jazzy for responding to his need. When I asked him if he had expected any positive response from the celebrities and people he contacted for help on his social network, he replied “Yes. I was hopeful that they would respond. I really tried to do it on my own, but I had run out of options. I am grateful to Mr. Don Jazzy for his assistance. When I saw the alert I screamed. My God will continue to bless him and his family“ According to James, his challenge is not totally resolved yet, because of the situation with his brother’s iPad and something about his mother waiting for contributions in her collective to mature. But he is a long way from where started and he plans to keep pushing his message on Facebook and twitter until he is able to buy the computer he needs for school. If James is a fraud, the next story that enters our inbox or mentions might be legit. How do we tell the difference? Most times we can’t. But we cannot afford to let those fears cloud our heart and make us cold to strangers in need. Kudos to Don Jazzy for doing the right thing.

tellwisdom:is By his story, he had saved 21,000. He had to remove 10,000 to take care of a situation. He must be left with 11,000 in the account. How come he now has 520? The Alert met nada in his pool |

For me, I'd rather give him the PC instead of the money.....but even then, he can still sell the PC and keep the cash.... Did anyone hear the story some months back where Alibaba the comedian helped a photographer who was needed help by buying a camera for him? Only for the man to sell the camera for a ridiculous amount to someone else. Alibaba found out cos he had his name printed somewhere on the camera. I don't blame anyone for looking the other way, cos more often than not, its a scam and not someone in need. |

Very articulate and thoughtful writeup by @Mayadiva (or something). This is worth moving to FP. He/her line of thought is quite reasonable. Now, Don Baba has always been a dude with a large heart. He's liberal and kind. That's y he keep getting bigger. Why? "A liberal soul shall be made fat". Even if the donor scammed him, God 'll still reward him (Don Baba). Big ups to the DoroBucci crooner! |

The way some people respond to issues baffles me! How does a message bar stating "FirstBank" become a BlackBerry message? If the story is true, appreciate the large heart of Jazzy and let it be! Not fishing for faults like APC and PDP. Besides, does it mean that cos somebody is using BB10 or any smartphone (which are mostly london-used BTW) he can't suffer lack at some point! Abi, you were all wishing the alert should have been yours? Typical of Nigerians sha --- You can always send me such SOS message and I might tender some widows mite while at it. 2 Likes |

manuelzz: Where did you all see this "alert on bbm" you all are talking about? Thats bb10 as you rightly said and that should be message displayed from bb hub. What is it with Nigerians always wanting to beg about. For crying out loud there are several things (biz, odd and sharpsharpjobs) you could do to get that money aside begging online. You have money for bb10 device but not enough money to get the lapy. He only wanted the limelight and as well could have thought its a great avenue to selfishly enrich himself. Perhaps he thought the doroboss would give him 1m. |
