At one of the schools visited, Efe Bello, National Secretary of the foundation, addressed the students with warmth and wisdom. She urged them to be exemplary ambassadors of their school and strive for academic excellence, just like Mr Oyakhilome Bello, an alumnus of Abina Omololu school who never let his background hinder his success.
