Kind-hearted Nigerians visited the woman at her homeGiving details of the rescue mission, Oyewale stated: PROJECT MAMA YEKINI This is Alhaja Sidikat, mother of former best footballer in Africa, Rashidi Yekinni, who died 4 years ago. According to Sahara Reporters, she’s struggling for living, selling bread. I know everyone has their own personal and family challenges and things are tough everywhere, but I want to champion the raising of N50,000 for this woman. I’m from Offa, and Ira, Rashidi’s hometown where the woman is, is just a stone-throw away from Offa. I know that a good number of my friends here live in Offa, can I have 2 people to volunteer to go and see this woman and confirm this story. Pls inbox me. After the two people have verified, they will send the report with pictures to me and I share here. We will embark on fund raising. Just 50k. After we raise the money, we will get people on ground (i.e our Offa and environs-based friends here) to deliver to her, with pictures just as proof. I nominate one of our active and reputable friends here, Femi Olabisi, Registrar of Offa COE, as Field Champion to lead the delivery of the money to her. We should do this in 1 week. I propose this timeline. Saturday & Sunday (8-9th May): Getting volunteers to verify.Monday (10th): Volunteers (2) visit to verify and report back.Tuesday – Thursday (11th-12th): Fund raising – Donations and contribution. Target is 50k.Saturday, 15th: Delivery of the money to herSunday: Post-project report. More suggestions are welcomed. AFTERTHOUGHT: Or will it be better to get a shop for her and stock it But will 50k do that LIKE us on Facebook Follow us on Twitter Join our BBM Channel

Guys comma transform bread into sausage oh.

The Nigerian state is failed one, quote me and I'll defend this statement with your last drop of blood. Imagine the state of a woman who bore a legend for the country! So the Nigeria Football Federation did not consider this one serious enough to handle ba? Nonsense!

The media is powerful sha! See how they made it look as if she was dying. I know people who gain good income from selling bread na. Nonetheless, she's worth living beyond that low income status.

Good initiative.

GodBlessNigeria.

I can support but how do I know you guys will use the money for the purported cause.

Ordinary 50 tazan. Were things so bad for Rashidi? Na wa oh.

This is really a good move by. those helping to assist her but oga OP ur repetition of words at the early stage of ur write up is not encouraging

Na wa oo,which way nigeria?

Its a good idea OP but the 50k will finish and she will be back to square 1.. Why not organize a fund raising to get her a small stall where she can sell everyday household needs.

Good gesture

Blessed are those who are merciful cux they shall obtain mercy

Few days ago I posted the pics about the woman so sad .....
