Lebron James is doing a whole lot
for his community. He recently built and opened a public school in his hometown of
Akron, Ohio. Already, he is solely financing the education of over 1,000
students that are attending the University of Akron. This feat puts him in the
league of the many rich American individuals and families that are advancing
the cause of education through scholarships, grants and foundations.
I wonder when this culture of
altruism will be imbibed by the Nigerian "Americanized" celebrities,
treasury-looting politicians, so-called billionaires and, even the stinking-rich “men of
God”. For now, all they do is flaunt their wealth - the mansions, exotic cars
and private jets in the face of the impoverished members of the public. And they do this even
while busy cheating the poor folks out of their hard-earned money.
