Education as a key means to liberate the mindset of individuals and a perfect measuring tool to attract adequate community expansion was the drive adopted by Prince Eniola Adeyemi, a young and vibrant Ikorodu division leader.
To encourage bright learners, who are incapable of accessing Jamb forms due to deprivation of funds, Prince Eniola Adeyemi on the 23rd of March 2022, hosted hundreds of green students at Oteju hall in Ikorodu ultra-modern town hall.
The annual educational aid programme which has been implemented for the past 5years pulled fresh scholars from across Ikorodu division for the screening scheme which elapsed throughout the whole day.
According to Prince Eniola Adeyemi, 500 students are to benefit from the program in 2022, synchronising it with his newly initiated political movement ‘Wake-Up’
Eniola Adeyemi continued, “Educating people means giving them the freedom to life’s voyage, this program is targeted at youths coming from a background that’s not well to do, it is a sponsorship scheme intended for touching lives and seeking a reasonable future for our young ones in Ikorodu”
“We have a lot of brilliant lads that lack the adequate financial backing to press further academically, this is why we experience the rise in social vices, due to reasons that a lot of our young ones have no ideal assistance to continue with their life aspirations”
“Our generation is coming from behind simply because we have many uneducated youths hanging around, and what they’re exposed to are only measures that bring social unrest to our numerous communities. The idleness has become a norm to them because that’s what the environment has presented. But ‘Wake-Up’ is bringing something new and fresh to elevate their spirit, soul and body as a form of societal revival”
“One of the essences of this program is to let the students know that their future is beyond my political vision, this is the 6th edition, win or lose we’ll continue to prioritise educational aid for generational leaders in Ikorodu. We want them to go to school as we’re equally getting them informed”
“500 free Jamb forms are been distributed as we speak across Ikorodu I.e Igbogbo Baiyeku, Imota LCDA, Ikorodu North LCDA, Ikorodu West LCDA, Ijede LCDA and Ikorodu Central“
“Over time, we’ve noticed that there are academic scholars with excellent results but need Jamb to further. That’s why we’ve also extended the free form issuing to NGOs, youth organisations and other non-political groups to make even the circulation”
Prince Eniola Adeyemi asserted that the screening process ends on Saturday 26th of March 2022, to enable eligible students to partake in the program successfully with a proper time extension.
The program was also graced by notable youth leaders in Ikorodu Including; Rasheed Adedeji Fatuga (Founder, Ikorodu Ambassadors Group), Comrade Idris Omotayo (Coordinator, National Youth Council Of Nigeria (Ikorodu LG Chapter), Adekunle Omodara (Civil Servant & Committee Member, Wake-Up 2023) amongst others.
Prince Eniola Adeyemi is the propeller of ‘Wake-Up 2023’, a youth political campaign initiative spearheading his aspiration to represent Ikorodu Constituency 1 at the Lagos State House of Assembly
