A man with X (Twitter) handle @Bahdbouy Danny has made a generous offer to gift a brand new iPhone 14 plus to a young girl who was denied an iPhone 8 by her father on her birthday.

The offer, which has garnered significant attention on the internet, has not only drawn admiration but has also raised questions and concerns regarding the man’s motivations.

The unidentified man, whose gesture has taken the internet by storm, expressed his desire to connect with the young girl and fulfill her wish for the latest iPhone model.

He wrote;

“Please How can I get in touch with this girl I want to gift her a brand new iPhone 14 plus.”

While many lauded the man’s generosity and willingness to brighten the girl’s day, others expressed skepticism about his intentions.

Some netizens questioned why he chose to focus on gifting such an expensive phone, the iPhone 14 plus, rather than directing his resources towards helping those in need.

Netizens Reactions…

@itisbobby said; “U wan buy am phone without the parents approval as per wetin u be? It’s high time we let kids be kids even tho I don’t support the dad using such words on his daughter.”

@t.a.m.a.r.a_d reacted; “Lmao Nigerians are so funny. In as much as the parents of this girl used spiteful words and did not speak to her with kindness. I totally get their point but nobody has the right to get her a phone. They didn’t say they can’t afford it, they said she doesn’t need that cause she has other important things she needs to focus on. Of all phones, iPhone 15, why not send her to a private uni with that money instead?”

@arrogant_tobi reacted; “Aswear this people don’t have idea of how disrespectful it is. Like didn’t you guys listen to what the man was saying in the video. Person wey no pass jamb Wey dem Dey try smuggle inside school. No reason how she go take enter school nah iPhone 8 Dey her mind not her future. If this guy that bought her iPhone 14plus use the money to work her a school and pay for 2 session fee Wouldn’t that make more sense than this rubbish finess he is trying to do.”

@unusualwendy said; “I’ve been seeing this girl asking for iPhone 8 trending everywhere and I’m scared for her. I know most African parents don’t know how to communicate with their children without using demeaning words. And it’s true that the girl will grow up to hold back things from her parents. But we keep forgetting to look at the other angle, the girl in question knows the situation of things at home and how mean her parents can be yet she went ahead to ask and record it to seek public validation. What happened to calmly meeting with your parents after the incident and explaining how deep their words hurt you and how you didn’t mean to upset them with your request. See communication that’s is properly composed works every time and gives room to for comprehension. I’m not taking sides, this is a family issue and should be handled within the family. Coming to throw your parents under the bus for sympathy does not show any sense of responsibility and respect. It’s a humiliating and a baseless behavior. She forgot that they are her parents and no one will her love her or go the extra mile for her like they would. Sometimes even the best of parents needs parenting too. Her parents can do better we all agree but she could have done better too.”
