Spyro revealed that he spends N15 million each year on supporting beggars.

Afrobeats singer Oludipe Oluwasanmi David, widely known as Spyro, has recently opened up about the immense financial and emotional pressure he faces as a celebrity in Lagos. In a candid revelation, Spyro disclosed that he spends over N15 million annually on beggars, a testament to his commitment to helping those in need.

In his Instagram post, Spyro expressed the challenges of celebrity life, particularly the constant demands for assistance from fans and strangers alike. He lamented that despite his efforts to give back, he often encounters ungratefulness, recounting a distressing incident where a stranger insulted him for not being able to provide financial help at that moment.

Spyro’s generosity is not a mere afterthought; he estimates that he spends a minimum of N100,000 each time he leaves his home, which amounts to approximately N1.2 million monthly. This staggering figure underscores the reality that many celebrities face—balancing their philanthropic desires with the pressures and expectations of their public personas.

His experiences serve as a reminder of the complexities surrounding celebrity philanthropy, where acts of kindness can sometimes lead to misunderstanding and resentment. As Spyro continues to navigate this challenging landscape, his story highlights the need for empathy and understanding toward those who choose to give back to their communities.
