By Nurudeen Adebayo
400 members of the Igbogbo Students’ Union (ISU) and residents of Igbogbo received relief materials distributed by the executive members of the union.
The distribution took place at the Oba Johnson Fatola Pavilion within the Adeboruwa palace in Igbogbo.
Comrade AbdulSalaam Tijani, President of the union, coordinated the exercise, sharing that a total of 380 individuals, including 80 union members and 300 community residents, benefited from two distinct food packs.
One pack contained cooked jollof rice with chicken, a bottle of water, and a soft drink, while the other included items such as indomie noodles, spaghetti, sugar, and seasonings.
The generous initiative was made possible through sponsorship from Prince (Barr.) Adeleke Aroyewun, Sen. Olafare Comfort, and Mr. Kayode Anibaba, the Convener of Wave Shift Foundation for Social Impact.
Comrade Tijani emphasized the union’s commitment to reaching out to its members and residents during the holiday season, stating, “We are doing this today in commemoration of Boxing Day, which calls for sharing gifts and caring for those in need.”
He further explained, “We are reaching out to our members who are across tertiary institutions across the country but are back home on holidays, in commemoration of the Boxing Day. Kindly accept the little that we are offering.
We are giving you what we have to support and share love with you, but not what you want.”
During the distribution exercise, Comrade Kuti Fiyinfoluwa (Vice President), Rt. Hon. Abdulateef Balogun (Speaker), Comrade Malik Yunus (Director of Studies), Comrade Giwa Hussein (Social Director), Comrade Sodiq Hassanat (Welfare Director), Hon. Hafsoh Ogunbiyi (Majority Leader), and Comrade Kuti Dare, former NAIDS President, were present.
The representative of Mr. Kayode Anibaba expressed the Wave Shift Foundation’s commitment to assisting in the development of students and the achievement of their dreams.
She pledged more interventions in Igbogbo in the coming months, reinforcing the foundation’s partnership with ISU in sponsoring relief materials distribution.
