Tunde Onakoya Overwhelmed As Stranger Gifts His Parents House
Nigerian chess master, Tunde Onakoya, is beaming with joy and gratitude after a philanthropist gifted his parents a house. The heartwarming gesture came after Tunde recently broke the Guinness world record for the longest chess marathon in New York.
Tunde took to Twitter to express his heartfelt thanks, sharing the incredible news. He revealed that his parents’ sacrifices, including his mother working as a cleaner and his father as a bus conductor, enabled him to pursue his education and passion for chess. He wrote:
“Someone gifted my parents a new house today. It’s the single greatest thing anyone will ever do for me in this lifetime. Thank you… My mother worked as a cleaner in the same school I attended so I could get an education while my dad worked as a Danfo driver/bus conductor so we could feed and survive. My greatest joy in life is to be able to give them both the life they truly deserve.”
