Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Alaba said he would first pay his tithe off the N500,000 donation given to him by the Global Alumni Association of the school.

He said he would give 10 per cent of the money as a tithe to his church, the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) and give another 10 per cent to the less fortunate in society and some of his friends in the same situation as him.

The graduate added that he would also give a token to his father, who supported him through the university while he would use the remaining amount to buy a laptop and a smartphone to start an online business.
