American TV host, Ellen DeGeneres has donated $100,000 to Emeka Nnaka, a paralysed Nigerian-American footballer.

Nnaka, 30, born of Nigerian descent, but raised in Macon, Georgia had a footballer accident nine years ago at 21 and his friends had been trying to raise the amount with a GoFundMe account.

The TV host said during her show that she wanted to surprise him for his good deeds and dedication towards helping others, in which over 50 persons had written letters to her describing how “incredible’’ he was.

Nnaka, since his accident nine years ago had been engaged in helping others, especially at-risk youth in his community.

The footballer had an accident, while playing for a semi-pro football team and tackled an opponent during a game in Arkansas.

He was said to have undergone a nine-hour neck surgery and spent 10 days in intensive care before returning to Tulsa, partially paralyzed

Meanwhile, his apartment building, along with his belongings was said to have been engulfed by fire on Sept 19 and the van that allows him to drive himself was totaled and needed to be replaced.

The footballer is said to be an asset to the Tulsa community by being an advocate for the physically challenged and countless other community projects.

Nnaka, who is a board member for Tulsa Transit has been heavily involved in raising money for the Tulsa United Way, as part of Tulsa Beyond Initiative to redesign and reimagine Tulsa high schools.

He serves as a councilor for displaced and troubled youth and Emeka inspires, encourages, and educates students and fellow citizens as a motivational speaker.

Emeka was injured in an Oklahoma Thunder football game 9 years ago and uses his experience to motivate people to not let their circumstances define them but use them to propel them to do and be better.

Thank God for him and I really appreciate Ellen for her kind gesture to this man.

Ps: Ellen DeGeneres is Les, she donated $100,000 and gets praised; Bobrisky is an unconfirmed gay but still wasn't appreciated for giving James Brown 100k.

Fine boy, if to say he dey Nigeria there is a very good chance that nah inside traffic he for dey hustle, seems like Nigeria dey downgrade person life ooo....

Good
Many people are doing things silently sha

That's good.
Even in America that's big money
Let's stop this thing of using and dumping people
No hero (sports, music, patriot, soldier, police, humanitarian, etc) should be on the streets.
Kpatakpata a trust fund or health insurance be set up for them.
Imagine Mayweather or Anthony Joshua or Okagbare, or Victor Moses on the streets in 20 years time? God forbid on their behalf

Gay

Over to our OAPs and our people in showbiz.

Awwww

OkoyeA1:
Ellen DeGeneres please come and be our president

President ko, Schmesident ni.
They will give her 14 years for being gay!

Ellen is one of the most generous TV host of this century...... she gives money and gifts out as if she manufactured them... indeed a wonderful lady with a great heart

Only if Nigerian celebs will remember that there’s something called charity and giving back to the community (Street) instead of the stupid display of luxurious lifestyle.

waw great one to him
shes a true legend

Nigerians are idiots. They hate Bob risky but love Ellen even though they are both homosexuals.
