Lekan Adewoye Foundation: Champions of Education

The Lekan Adewoye Foundation, based in Ilorin, is making waves by providing Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) forms for 1,000 students seeking admission into higher institutions. This act of generosity extends across 83 wards in the seven local governments of the Kwara South senatorial zone. That’s serious impact!

More Than Just JAMB Forms

But wait, there’s more! The Foundation isn’t just stopping at JAMB sponsorship. They’re also pledging full academic scholarships for the candidates who achieve the highest scores in the examination from each of the seven Local Government Areas. Now that’s investing in the future!

Giving Back to the Community

Adewoye himself stated that this initiative is part of his Foundation’s commitment to promoting education. These beneficiaries are selected based on merit and need. These are students who have been thoroughly assessed and deemed deserving, irrespective of their financial status. Everyone deserves a fair shot at higher education!

Why This Matters

Education is a key factor to grow the economy and improve people’s lives. Nigeria’s literacy rate is growing, with youth literacy rates even higher. The gesture by the Lekan Adewoye Foundation is a welcome development that should be copied.

Adewoye, also a member of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN), is serious about raising educational standards in Kwara South and beyond. He says, “Education remains the most powerful tool for transformation. At the Lekan Adewoye Foundation, we believe that no brilliant mind should be denied access to higher education due to financial constraints.”

What’s Next for the Top Students?

These top-performing students will receive comprehensive support to pursue their studies in any accredited institution that grants them admission. This is a game-changer for these young scholars!
