It was revealed earlier this week that Beyoncé has donated £8,000 to a troubled Nigerian restaurant in north London that was threatened with closure due to rising energy bills.
Chuku’s, a Nigerian tapas restaurant in Tottenham run by siblings Emeka and Ifeyinwa Frederik, was one of ten winners to receive a scholarship from the 41-year-old music superstar this month.
As part of her incredible Renaissance world tour, the Halo hitmaker’s BeyGOOD Foundation had pledged to donate a share of US$1 million (£806,000) to ten companies in cities around the world.
These included Atlanta, New Orleans, Chicago and London – where Bey (worth an estimated £420million) took to the stage five times in May and June with performances at nearby Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Though Chuku’s has garnered an impressive following since opening in 2020, they’ve faced tough times since launching during the pandemic, including struggling to cope with rising energy bills.
At the end of last year, the restaurant took on the great challenge of receiving 600 bookings within six weeks. And impressively, they managed to get a whopping 801.
Emeka and Ifeyinwa received strong support from the local community, as well as celebrities and soccer players who were keen to try Chuku’s unique take on traditional Nigerian dishes.

And now they’ve received an extra boost from the Beyoncé Foundation by awarding the grant at The Black Parade Small Business Impact Luncheon, created by BeyGOOD to “celebrate people, communities and small businesses affected by economic inequality around the world”.
Lunch was held at the Four Seasons in Tower Hill, where 100 entrepreneurs gathered for a chance to win $100,000 (£806,090) in prizes.
And with over 400 applicants, the victory for the sibling duo was all the more gratifying because they only made up part of the two percent of the evening’s winners.
Chuku co-founder Emeka said of the win, “This grant couldn’t be more welcome.” Like other restaurants without financial reserves, Chuku’s has been hit by lockdowns and the cost of living crisis.
“Every day we fight to stay open to reach our fourth birthday.” “This money will make that fight a little easier and allow us to continue celebrating Nigerian culture on Tottenham’s High Road for now.”
While his sister Ifeyinwa added, “I still can’t quite believe Beyoncé supported our restaurant — it feels a bit surreal.”
“We already felt her impact when she was in town and the concert-goers chose Chuku for their pre-performance meal, but that’s a whole other level.”
As for whether she thought the Cuff It singer had ever tasted her food, she told The Times, “We never knew.” [if] Everyone came to take away or ate the food secretly. I think it was about what we wrote in our application.’

When asked what the difference the scholarship has made, he added, “It helps keep the energy going.” To receive that award, someone says, “See you. We appreciate your hard work.” “It’s one of those moments where it’s a fantastic push.”
The superstar showed off her toned physique in a sexy red outfit with matching elbow-length gloves and a flowing red fabric that reached from the top of her head to each of her elbows.
The beauty sported a glamorous makeup palette, accessorised with long dangling silver earrings and completed the look with red tights and diamond strap heels.
The Renaissance World Tour is the singer-songwriter’s ninth concert tour in support of her seventh studio album, Renaissance.

‘Renaissance’ was one of the biggest summer albums last year after the pop icon released the disco-inspired collection of dance songs.
The concert series started in May at the Friends Arena in Stockholm, Sweden.
Performing in Wales a few weeks ago, Beyonce stunned her fans when she enlisted the help of her audience to bring out her 2011 track ‘Love On Top’, which resulted in an absolutely perfect rendition of the track and then the music led icon said to the 75,000-strong crowd, “Give yourself a round of applause.”
During her performance she performed a number of her popular songs such as Formation, Run The World (Girls), Love On Top and a powerful mix of Dangerously In Love, Flaws And All and 1+1 which electrified the audience.
