Nigerian singer and humanitarian Timi Dakolo has launched an initiative to ease the financial burden on parents grappling with school fees as the 2025/2026 academic session commences. Recognizing the challenges many families face with the rising cost of education, Dakolo took to his official X (formerly Twitter) account to announce his commitment to assist those in need.
In his heartfelt message, Dakolo acknowledged the stress and difficulty associated with school fee season, sharing from personal experience the weight such expenses can impose on households. “I know it’s school fee season, it’s not always easy, I know this first-hand. So, let me help lessen that burden a little bit,” he wrote.
Parents and guardians who find themselves unable to meet tuition deadlines are encouraged to send their children’s school bills via Instagram direct message to @TheOyindaOlu. Dakolo’s team has pledged transparency by promising to provide electronic receipts as proof of payment directly made to schools.
This timely gesture has been widely praised across social media platforms, resonating deeply with families who have been stretched financially due to soaring educational costs including tuition fees, levies, textbooks, and uniforms. Dakolo, known for his soulful songs and advocacy on social welfare issues, continues to use his platform to promote community support and uplift vulnerable groups.
By stepping into this role, Dakolo not only provides immediate relief for struggling parents but also sets a compassionate example of celebrity philanthropy in Nigeria. His intervention highlights the ongoing need for collective efforts to support education and empower children to pursue their academic dreams without financial hindrance.
