Paris Hilton engages Tunde Onakoya for his Chess in Slums foundation
American media giant, and Hilton empire heiress, Paris Hilton, has commended Chess In Slum founder, Tunde Onakoya, for his good works.
Tunde Onakoya caught Hilton’s attention on Monday after tweeting about a boy he adopted from the slums of Ikorodu, Lagos, who was resuming school.
He wrote;
“About a year ago, I found this little boy in the slums of Ikorodu picking scrap from the floor. I adopted him and he has lived with me ever since then. Today is his first day in school. He aced his entrance examination and will be starting from Primary One.”
@AdeleyeOuwako1 who works for the non-profit organization also posted a video of the boy, with the caption, “What love cannot transform doesn’t exist.”
“Y’all need to see the joy in his face when he came to wake me up from bed this morning, saying Uncle Korayy, I’m ready for school. Proud to be part of this journey with @chessinslums x @Tunde_OD,” he wrote.
In response to Adeleye’s tweet, Paris wrote, “Love this, and God bless you both.”

Hilton further shared a picture of the organization’s Twitter page and the channels for donation.
