Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited has donated a four-bedroom, three-parlour duplex worth ₦70 million to popular visually impaired comedian Kelly Igberhi, widely known as Kellyblind. The property, located in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos State, was officially presented on Monday at Tantita’s Head Office in Bendel Estate, Ugborikoko, Delta State.
Presenting the house documents on behalf of the company’s Managing Director, High Chief (Engr.) Kestin Pondi, the General Manager (Operations), Mr. Godfrey Tare Pondi, emphasized Tantita’s commitment to not only securing pipelines but also making meaningful contributions to society. He described the donation as the fulfillment of a promise made by Engr. Pondi to Kellyblind.
Kellyblind, who lost his sight at age 11 due to measles, expressed profound gratitude for the support. He recounted how he became homeless following the demolition of his house by the Lagos State Government on July 25, 2018. His encounter with Engr. Pondi at the TenTen Concert in November 2024 at KFT Place led to this life-changing gesture, as the Tantita MD had pledged to provide him with a home after hearing his story.
His wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Igberhi, admitted she initially doubted the promise but now sees Engr. Pondi as a man of integrity. MC Simon, a close associate of Kellyblind, lauded Tantita Security Services for its humanitarian initiative, noting that the company’s impact extends beyond its core operations.
The donation marks a significant milestone in Kellyblind’s life, offering him and his family stability and a permanent home.
