Whatsapp group members angry as ex-classmate they donated to used money to relocate to Canada

A lady from a Whatsapp group has lamented online after one of the group members they contributed to used the money to relocate to Canada.

The lady identified as Ego-Mbute disclosed in a thread of tweets that she joined a WhatsApp group in March 2023.

The administrator informed them that the group’s goal was to raise funds for their former classmate, whose husband is unemployed and who is expecting her third child.

Every member of the group contributed, with the lowest amount being N50,000 and the biggest being N500,000, according to Ego-Mbute.

Ego-Mbute was shocked to see a Facebook post on January 1, 2024, from their coursemate, thanking them for spending eight months visiting family in Canada.

Ego-Mbute immediately reached out to the group admin for clarification. The admin told her that the lady who sought financial assistance blocked her after she received the donations.
