Nigerians in an act of kindness have raised over N22 million for the welfare of the children of Olamide Omajuwa Alli who was murdered by her fiancé, Chris Ndukwe.

The crowdfunding initiative was spearheaded by Accessing Grants for Startups better known as AGS Tribe, a women entrepreneurial empowerment community, which Alli until her death was an active member.

It would be recalled Alli, was viciously killed by her fiancé, Chris Ndukwe on June 21 in their Lekki apartment, Lagos state.

Following the tragic incidence, AGS Tribe with the permission of the family of Alli announced the start of a fundraiser in her honor.

According to the organization, all proceeds from the fundraiser will be used to set up a Trust Fund for her children (7 and 3 years old).

It also stated that the Trust Fund, which will  be managed by FBN Quest Trustees, was set at N20million target.

Exactly a week after the community first announced the Trust Fund, AGS Tribe has now announced that it has exceeded the set target, raising over N22million.

Speaking about their success, the founder of AGS Tribe, Ife Durosinmi Etti stated;

Exactly a week after the first announcement, we have been able to surpass our target. This is actually wild! I do not have the words to describe how I feel.

When I announced the 20million as a target, I was scared. After we got to 6 million, I started having heart palpitations. I do not even know why, but even more fear set in.

Etti appreciated everyone who contributed to the cause, saying;

God bless everyone that was part of this journey! You will never be close to any tragedy all the days of your life and you will always find Favour in all you do. We will keep you all updated on everything.

We did it guys!!!! . • Exactly a week after the first announcement, we have been able to surpass our target. This is actually WILD! I don’t have the words to describe how I feel. . • When I announced the 20million as a target… I was SCARED!!!! After we got to 6 million, I started having heart palpitations… I don’t even know why… but even more fear set in. . • One of my brothers asked me yesterday that how did I come up with 20m, he thought there was a method to my madness, when I told him, he was rolling! Last year, i had a meeting with someone in the AGS Tribe community. She wasn’t working but she was able to pay for a session with me amongst other things… she was also considering starting businesses. I had to ask her… where will you get the money from. She said when she was working in her former job, she saved up enough and has put it in a Trust, now they pay her so so so and so every 3 months. I just smiled because I used to manage our Education Trust Fund in my former job! Long and short… the money can never finish. . • So guess what I did… I just doubled their amount the lady had discussed with me and came up with the 20m😂 I guess God was preparing me for a day like last week Sunday. . • The devil can try to steal from us but he will never succeed. Because of you all, those kids and their generation have a guaranteed future, at least financially. May God give them guardians and good earthly parents that will bring out the best in them. . • God bless everyone that was part of this journey! You will never be close to any tragedy all the days of your life and you will always find Favour in all you do. . • We will keep you all updated on everything. . • Thank you❤️ . • All glory back to God!🙏
