A Twitter influencer, Motara has been dropped as a member by a non-profit organisation identified as Brotherskeeper following her now-viral video.

In a statement shared to their official Twitter page, the organisation announced the suspension of the influencer as their Public Relations Officer.

She was filmed enticing a poor child beggar with a bottle of drink only to leave her hanging.

In the video, Motara is seen driving in traffic when a child beggar walks up to her window to beg.

Motara motions with her bottle of drink, asking if the child wants to drink and she nods. With the window still up, Motara places the mouth of the bottle near the girl’s mouth.

As the car start moving, the girl runs after Motara’s car, hoping for the drink, but she continues to use the drink to raise her hopes without actually giving the child the drink.

She ends up laughing at the child before gulping down the drink and driving off.

Motara shared the video on her WhatsApp status then took it down, but it had already been captured by others and it went viral.

Brotherskeeper's organisation revealed that Motara's actions were contrary to what their organisation stands for, therefore, they condemned what she did.

The statement reads: "Brotherskeeper is an organisation that believes in humanitarian services and not the contrary. Due to this, we regret to announce that @ladymotara is no longer a member of Brotherskeeper and has been suspended from her duty as the Pro henceforth.

''The reason for this decision stems from a viral video circulating on social media of our PRO making fun of a beggar in her car while driving and sipping her drink. This act goes contrary to what our great organization stands for and believes in; therefore, it has been condemned in all sincerity.

''She is hereby directed to handover every document of the Brotherskeeper organisation in her custody. We wish her good luck in her endeavours. Brotherskeeper will never be in support of any degrading or dehumanising act. We stand for love, tolerance and much more."
