He shared his gesture on his Instagram page, saying, 'Although I am amongst those affected by this pandemic on an economic level, with the little that God has blessed me with, I have decided to at least offer a helping hand by paying 3 Months house rent to 500 families; as my kind gesture of helping one another during these terrible times of fighting COVID-19.'
