…donates school uniforms

The Asaooni of Ora-Igbomina, in Ifedayo Local Government Area of Osun State, Oba Adekanmi Abikoye, has sought for the support of sons and daughters, both home and diaspora, towards the development of the ancient town.

The monarch said this during the handing over of 100 school uniforms to pupils of St. Stephens Anglican Primary School, Ora-Igbomina.

He explained that that the school established in 1912, is historical in nature being the first school in the whole of Igbomina region.

Oba Abikoye, therefore, admonished indigenes of the town to contribute their quota to the development of the town to make it a town to behold in Igbominaland.

He expressed his readiness to partner with individuals, corporate organisations to change the face of the town for the good of his subjects.

The monarch noted that the donation of school uniforms to 100 pupils is just his own way of giving back to the school that produced him.

He said, “I am a proud product of this great citadel of learning.I am very glad to have facilitated the donation of the uniforms as part of our contribution to the progress of our alma mata and to support the indigent ones.”

“This token would boost the moral of the pupils by giving them self confidence that they do can become whatever they chose to be in life.

“I, therefore, charged many of those who have passed through this school to remember it,by giving back to their alma mata. There is so much to be done, as we all know that government cannot do it alone.

“As the Asaooni of Ora -Igbomina,  I am ready to collaborate with well meaning people, well to do individuals and corporate organisations to turn around the fortune of my people.

The school headmaster, Prince Adebowale Adeniji, appreciated Oba Abikoye for remembering his alma mata.
