Nigerian Afro-Cyborg singer, songwriter and producer, Bright Ukpabi, famously known as Mr. Dutch, over a period of five days has given away a whooping N5 million to the less privileged in the society to mark his birthday which comes up today June 26, 2020.

The “Keys To My Heart” and “Antidote” crooner, who has been proactive to challenges occasioned by the Coronavirus pandemic said instead of wallowing in self-pampering with gifts or throwing a lavish superlative party he would instead be bringing happiness to many homes and people who are worst hit by the pandemic.

The singer started the giveaway five days ago in a countdown to the D-Day of the birthday, which is today.

In a statement issued by him, he said, “In the spirit of my birthday celebration on the Friday 26th June which is exactly 5 days starting from today amid this Coronavirus pandemic and social distancing era instead of throwing parties and pampering myself with gifts I would be giving out 5 million naira to help people that are really in need of goods, water, cloth, visiting the orphanages, and also to help people revive their businesses. Massive giveaway within these 5 days into my birthday starting today (5 days ago).

“Believe me, the best birthday gift that I really want is to put a smile on people’s faces, this is way more satisfactory to me than throwing a birthday party for my family and friends to celebrate me. Feel free to convert your packages for me and join the cause. The management of my Mr Dutch Foundation would take full responsibility for the action plan in making all this happen.

“My legacy is an act of generosity without expectation. I would continue to leave these footprints to help make the world a better place. Remember, we don’t own the planet, we are just curating it for future generations.”
