If you know you don't need the money, give it to the people that will appreciate it, how will someone risky his life to osun State despite all these kidnapers scenario, you still don't appreciate the money he brought to you.

Baba Wande is a typical African dad - Nigerian man
The video of Baba Wande's reaction after receiving the cash donation from fans drew a reaction from a Nigerian writer, Adeyinka Odutuyo, who shared his thoughts with Legit.ng. He said:
"I don’t think it’s a question of being right or pride. If anything, he’s only shown what a typical African dad would do when they get unsolicited gifts.
In this case, the gift, no matter well-intentioned, was unsolicited and I don’t think he’s wrong to want to have context, considering Afod mentioned it was a donation from fans.
At least, the fans must have heard, seen, or been told something before voting to give him money."
