American streamer and YouTuber Kai Cenat, has announced his plans to start building a school for children in Makoko, a well-known floating slum in Lagos, Nigeria.
This announcement comes after Cenat’s recent visit to the area, where he generously donated funds to the local community.
Cenat has during his trip to Nigeria a few weeks ago, visited Makoko where he experienced firsthand the living conditions in the community.
The visit, which was reported by LEADERSHIP, included a warm welcome by skit maker, Shanks and a meeting with popular Nigerian music icon, Davido.
In a video shared with his followers, Cenat expressed his commitment to the educational project, and called for support from individuals capable of contributing work or providing quality equipment.
“We are officially starting the process to build a new school for the kids here in Makoko,” Cenat stated, highlighting the urgent need for educational infrastructure in the area.
The initiative has sparked a wide range of reactions on social media, with many praising Cenat’s efforts to make a difference in the lives of Makoko’s children.
Twitter user @Alambajugu commended the streamer’s actions, saying, “Imagine someone that has only been to this country once is doing something the government could not do for 6 decades.”
Similarly, @ayomiepat_ expressed optimism about the project’s success, while also voicing concerns over the integrity of those who will manage the funds, “That’s impressive… I just pray he doesn’t give the project to people who would divert all the money to their personal accounts.”
Despite the mixed reactions, the sentiment towards Cenat’s initiative remains overwhelmingly positive, with @jaymoney7500 succinctly putting it, “mk he build the school first…no long cap.”
