pictures<\/a> (family pictures) and sent it to her and told her \u2018Uwa, this is your story, this is your mother, your aunty, grandmother and family. So, how come you are saying you don\u2019t have family and that nobody cares for you. This is the true story behind you.<\/p>\n\u201cThen I told her to stop the lies. She thereafter chatted with me asking why I sent the pictures to her. But I did not answer her. I simply told her \u2018I want Nigerians to know the truth because you\u2019re lying and you\u2019re condemning the family by claiming nobody took care of you. We are not interested in your money but the fact that you are saying you don\u2019t have a family. The lies are what I will not accept.\u201d<\/p>\n
She also noted that Mary\u2019s claim that her parents died in an accident which occured in 2006 was a lie.<\/p>\n
\u201cSaying my elder sister (Mary\u2019s mother) died in a car accident was never true. She died in 2012, one week to my graduation from the university. She also said her younger brother is in the village and that she\u2019s the one catering for him, which is also a lie. The boy is here with my elder sister right from JSS 1 and he is SS1 presently.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe also said her child is with mama but that is not true. She left the child with a woman, her former neigbour in Asaba. The neighbour has relocated from Asaba to Ayangba, Kogi state.\u201d<\/p>\n
Adedamola revealed that her niece had a similar donation of N1.7 million during her stay in Asaba but did not utilise the money properly.<\/p>\n
\u201cDuring the lockdown, I don\u2019t know how she did it in Asaba but people would give her this and that. She got like N1.7 million or thereabout at the time. She said the boy (her boyfriend) stole N500,000 and ran away,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, I asked her about the remaining money because after she put to bed, I was in touch with her. She said she rented a flat herself and she took care of herself and her baby.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, I asked her, you went back to the streets? I told her that \u2018don\u2019t you know that when people help you and give you money\u2026they hope to see a new development that you were able to use that money for something reasonable. But not even showing anything and going back to the streets to sell water is as if they wasted their money on you. Then she said, she was not wise.\u201d<\/p>\n
Abu, Mary\u2019s grandmother, also confirmed to TheCable that she actually fled home.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am the grandmother to Ojonuwa. Her mother was my first child whom I had on April 18, 1973. She\u2019s my granddaughter,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
