Haha it will take a lot more than footballers to combat poverty. Absolutely ridiculous.

Maybe he's just appalling at maths or is trying to avoid being the target of a kidnapping next time he's in Nigeria.

Going by the value of naira, he is actually a billionaire.

IF that interview was last year, maybe he wasn't a millionaire, what was his salary at Watford? Maybe he lived a lavish lifestyle and doesn't save well

An orphanage in Nigeria will cost about 5k a month to run.

from a man who makes around 800k a month, it's hardly a great gesture better than nothing but more should be expected from these people.

It's more than most do, and it's incredibly unfair of you to expect more. Charity, by definition, is voluntary and should not be expected of anyone.

Why do some folks always criticise charitable/good deeds with, “what about…..” in an attempt undermine decent acts of kindness.

Good on him. He may not cure famine and poverty but if he can help change 50 kids lives then it's worth every penny.

imagine every footballer donating one weeks wages for all those who earn more 100k a week would we get rid of poverty?

I get mugged off by Unicef for 18.60 a month, because a cute young lass knocked on my door with pictures of sick children...

I've thought about cancelling it a hundred times, but every time a do I think of my little girl and that stops me...

Well, that and guilt over the fact that I spend £100+ a month on a coffee and almond croissant from Cafe Nero every morning.

Whilst some charities are better than others, are you suggesting folks shouldn't donate?

If you make your own breakfast, lunch and get your snacks from the supermarket you'll save yourself a lot of money.

im just suggesting maybe its good to do some research before pumping money into a dubious charity.

Would imagine all big charities have people at the top that earn a big wage, but that doesn't take away from the lives they have helped.
