Actress Iya Gbonkan beams as a fan gifts her brand new car after N5m donation

Nigerian film star Margaret Bandele Olayinka, widely recognized as Iya Gbonkan, was joyfully presented with a shiny new automobile by one of her ardent supporters on Thursday.

Recall that last month, the actress emphasized her extensive acting career while lamenting her lack of personal transportation. She revealed her daily routine of relying on public buses to reach her desired locations.

Iya Gbonkan urged her admirers to honor and appreciate her while she is alive rather than waiting until she passes away to offer extravagant gestures.

Following her heartfelt appeal, the seasoned actress received a lot of donations, totaling about 5 million naira, from generous individuals across Nigeria.

Pastor Gabriel, in particular, paid a visit to her in Osogbo and initiated a fundraising campaign to gather funds from compassionate individuals worldwide dedicated to supporting Iya Gbonkan’s aspirations of acquiring a new car and securing a permanent residence.

In a recent development, a devoted supporter named Mrs. Omobolanle Olatise generously gifted Iya Gbonkan with a car in addition to the previous donation of N5 million.

A touching video captured the heartfelt moment when the veteran actress was presented with the car key, clearly displaying Iya Gbonkan’s overwhelming joy.

As she received the vehicle, she eagerly entered it and posed with pure happiness. Seated comfortably in the driver’s seat, she offered heartfelt prayers for her kind-hearted fan.

Experienced actresses Tamotiye and Abeni Agbon, who are said to reside close to Iya Gbonkan’s residence in Osogbo, graciously joined in celebrating her elation.
