Obiageri Mazi has indeed been met with good graces today.
Ever since a hundred thousand naira and a long-awaited promotion was given to her by the Governor of Borno State, Babagana Umara Zulum, she has become indeed the celebrity.
Several loads of good-will messages have poured in for her.
However, Nigerians are willing to take it a notch higher.
Twitter influencer and Employability coach, Dr. Dipo Awojide rallied people around to raise a million naira for the long-serving school teacher who had toiled 31 years on a paltry sum of N35,000.
In less than an hour, a hundred thousand had been raised. Assisted by the personal assistant on New media to Buhari, Bashir Ahmad, the race to a million naira has begun.
Some good news. @ShettimaDogo works for the Borno State Goverment. He is helping us and will give us feedback on Monday. Please get ready to donate. @whitenigerian has promised N50,000. I’ll donate N75,000. Our aim is at least a million Naira. We can do it. And we will do it.
