Oluwaseun Adeboyejo foundation distributes bags, books to pupils in Ekiti
A non-governmental organization, Oluwaseun Adeboyejo Foundation, has put smile on faces of pupils in public schools in Emure-Ekiti, Emure Local Government Area of Ekiti State.
The foundation which gave out books, school bags, writting materials also rewarded some outstanding students in a recent debate.
At a eye-catching event held at Sacred Heart Primary School compound Emure Ekiti, the Convener of the foundation, Mr. Oluwaseun Adeboyejo said the gesture is aimed at bridging the gap between the affluent and the downtrodden, stating that all and sundry should have access to education.
Adeboyejo also noted that the prevailing hardship informed his decision to embark on the empowerment drive, stressing that the ugly situation is taking humongous toll on the residents already affected by the economic downturn.
Advising the beneficiaries, the Convener said: “I want to encourage each and every one of you to remain dedicated to your studies. Education is a powerful tool that can shape your future, and by putting in the effort now, you are laying a strong foundation for success.
“I am deeply interested in your growth and development, and I will continue to follow your progress closely. In due time, I will return to support the education of the most outstanding students among you. This is not just about your current efforts but about your long-term commitment to learning and excellence.
“If you make the most of this opportunity and remain focused and disciplined, I will ensure that your journey doesn’t end here. For those who excel, I am committed to sponsoring your education up to the tertiary level. The doors to a brighter future are within reach, and with hard work, determination, and resilience, I believe many of you can achieve great things. Seize this moment, stay studious, and know that your efforts will be rewarded.”
Reeling out the number of schools that benefitted, he said, “10 pupils from 39 schools as well as five Secondary schools have been privileged to benefit from the foundation and we will do our best to ensure that we assauge the burden of parents.
One of the beneficiaries, Adeola Emmanuel, whose joy knew no bound, expressed his unfeigned appreciation to the Foundation for deeming it fit to empower them despite the apparent hardship coupled with its biting effect.
He also showered encomium on Mr. Adeboyejo for his invaluable contribution to humanity, praying that the almighty God shall continue to provide for him and his family.
However, the Local Government Education Secretary, Mr Ayoola Oluwasanmi applauded the donor and his foundation over the empowerment, while urged other well-meaning individuals to emulate the good deeds of Oluwaseun Adeboyejo foundation.
Also in attendance at the empowerment program was —the Emure Ekiti LG Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) Chairman, Ashake Olasoji.
