BBNaija star, Alexandra Asogwa, popularly known as Alex Unusual, on Thursday, hosted a Fund raising dinner for Breast Cancer patients in Abuja where she was auctioned for N300, 000.
The event was organized by Project Pink Blue, a Cancer Non-Profit organization in Abuja.
The Reality Star who dazzled in two separate pink looks for the night was put up on auction and ended up fetching the sum of N300, 000 for the organizers.
The star later summed up the night in an Instagram post where she said:
“Last night will forever be etched in my heart. @projectpinkblue Thanks a lot for the fulfillment and inner peace I feel this morning. Time and money spent helping people do more for themselves is far better than giving just because you can. Now I understand why the Bible says we should emulate Christ-like qualities. We become His influence, his hands and heart for everyone around us. God intervenes in people’s lives all the time but we seldom document this special faith and hope building events. Yesterday was a hope raising day and I’m happy I was part of it.”

However, at the event, Alex was quoted as saying, “I know what it feels to lose someone close to you as a result of this ailment.
“I lost two people to cancer not because there was no funds for treatment but because they did not find out on time.
“Cancer is real and it kills irrespective of your age, class or social status.”
According to the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, other celebrities were also auctioned at the event. They include actress, Rachael Okonkwo, reality star and fitness coach, Kemen, Ex-Mr. Nigeria Bryan Okwara, TV personality, Denrele Edun and Charles Okpaleke of Playnetwork.
