American streamer and YouTuber Kai Cenat has unveiled his ambitious plan to construct a school for children in Makoko, a renowned floating slum located in Lagos, Nigeria.
This announcement follows Cenat’s recent visit to the area, where he generously contributed funds to support the local community.
During his trip to Nigeria a few weeks ago, Cenat had the opportunity to explore Makoko firsthand, gaining insight into the challenging living conditions within the community. His visit was marked by a warm reception from skit maker Shanks and a meeting with Nigerian music sensation Davido.
In a video shared with his followers, Cenat expressed his unwavering dedication to the educational initiative and appealed for support from individuals capable of offering assistance, whether through work contributions or the provision of 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.”
