A philanthropist, Tunde Olaogun, has distributed General Certificate Education (GCE) forms to no fewer than 50 indigent students of his constituency in Ogbomosho, Oyo state.

Olaogun, said this at the official distribution of the WAEC GCE registration PIN to beneficiaries that investment in education was necessary to transform Nigeria.

The philanthropist promised that the number of beneficiaries would increase to 200 by next exams.

Olaogun, a grassroot politician, philanthropist and owner of Royalty Lounge & Suites, Ikeja said that the gesture was in line with progressive programme on education for youths.

“We have done this in the past without any publicity knowing fully well that our youth needs this encouragement to take education seriously.

“But we later discovered that some of them did not have complete O’ level results and some students also approached me, and said that they needed GCE forms.

“So, I felt that this was a way to let the youth grow. With this, they would be able to help their parents when they eventually graduate. The knowledge that we acquired is what is helping us today. So we will continue to do more to impact on the youth,” Olaogun said.

In response to this kind gesture, the principal of the secondary school where this forms were distributed appreciated the philanthropist in an official letter here attached.
