Nigerian dancer and mother of two, Korra Obidi, receives an overwhelming response to her GoFundMe appeal for financial support amidst her legal battle with ex-husband Justin Dean. Surpassing the $49,000 mark within hours of launching the campaign, Obidi’s fans demonstrate strong solidarity.
The fundraiser arises from Obidi’s ongoing legal dispute with Dean, particularly regarding custody and image rights of their children. Dean recently obtained image rights protection from Meta, leading to the removal of Obidi’s videos featuring their children from Facebook, along with demonetization of her page.
Expressing distress over the high legal costs required to challenge Dean’s actions, Obidi turns to social media for help, setting a $100,000 target on her GoFundMe campaign. The response is remarkable, with donations pouring in within the first 24 hours, surpassing $49,000 and continuing to rise rapidly.
