kakalistiq.com reports that Hon. Kamaldeen Olaide Lawal (KOL), a philanthropist and grassroots advocate for youth development in Epe Local Government, has once again demonstrated his commitment to education by presenting 100 free JAMB PINs to outstanding community students under the 4th Edition of his Free JAMB Initiative.
The event held in Epe on Monday, 9th February, 2026, was marked by excitement and renewed hope as beneficiaries received the opportunity to take a major step toward achieving their academic ambitions. The initiative aligns with global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on quality education and youth empowerment.
Speaking at the presentation ceremony, Hon. Lawal charged the students to make the most of the opportunity placed before them.
“This is your chance to rise, to succeed, and to make your families and community proud,” he said. “I want to sincerely implore all the beneficiaries to take this opportunity seriously. Study hard, stay focused, and prepare excellently for your JAMB examination.”
He also underscored the growing role of private individuals in supporting education, noting that the burden of funding learning should not rest solely on government. According to him, “Education thrives when people of means step forward to support young minds, because the future of a society cannot be left on government shoulders alone.”
A relevant education saying echoed at the event captured this spirit:
“When those who have are willing to invest in learning, the whole community becomes richer in knowledge and stronger in destiny.”
The Coordinator of the programme, Amb. Kadri Abiola Adedolapo (Morgan), alongside Co-Coordinator Hon. Adu Solomon, reminded the students that the initiative goes beyond examination support.
“This is not just assistance; it is an investment in the leaders of tomorrow,” they said, adding that scholarships, free schooling, and monthly stipends would be awarded to the best-performing candidates.
They encouraged beneficiaries to see the gesture as a call to excellence and discipline, stressing that hard work would open doors to even greater opportunities.
Beneficiaries present applauded Hon. Lawal’s consistency, noting that the fourth edition of the initiative reflects a sustained vision for youth transformation.
With this gesture, Hon. Kamal Olaide Lawal continues to strengthen his legacy as a champion of education and a firm believer in the power of young people to shape a brighter future for Epe and beyond.
