He revealed that his first one million naira came as a generous gift from an individual who had spotted him on television during his participation in the first edition of Idols West Africa back in 2007.

Recalling the impact of this substantial gift, Timi Dakolo expressed, "There was somebody that gave me N1m from nowhere. I had never seen N10,000 before. The money I used to have then was always N1,300, N800, N1,200, and N520. And somebody gave me N1m cash. He came to the hotel and gave me N1m. He said he doesn't watch TV but he saw me on TV and he felt he should give me N1m."

"I saw N1m, I could not sleep. I was looking at the money. I said, 'This money will change.' I was speaking English that day. Me that used to disturb the whole place, I was quiet [sic]. I caught myself speaking good English."

Timi Dakolo's story serves as a testament to the transformative power of unexpected generosity in one's life.
