Former Minister of Works and Infrastructure, and one time Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Sen.

Presentation of some of the items to the School Principal.

Ogunlewe was impressed with the performance of the School during the scholarship programme of Late Oba Adebamide Olaide about three weeks ago.

"We have been giving scholarship to Students before now but we decided again to extend the hands of fellowship to Keme Balogun Junior and Senior Schools. Hearing news that some of the students have been representing Lagos State truly impressed us a lot and it has motivated us to contribute again to the success of this school and it will be a continuous exercises and we will be extending same gesture to other schools in Igbogbo/Bayeku LCDA," Ogunlewe said.

"To the Principal, do not hesitate to call whenever you are in need, we'll always be available for you. To other Students, do not be discouraged that the scholarship was just for the science student only, it will get cross to every students as soon as possible," Ogunlewe assured.

In his capacity, the Chairman, Global Mandate, Alhaji Qudus Oduntan, advised the students to make use of the given educational materials very well, so as to motivate the giver to do more. He also stated that students should take their studies seriously, assuring that the sky will be their starting point.

"This is just the first phase and we are not only extending this gesture to Keme Balogun Junior and Senior Secondary Schools only, but we are going to other secondary schools under Igbogbo/ Bayeku LCDA," Oduntan promised.

In her eloquent remarks, the Principal, Keme Balogun Junior Secondary School, Mrs D. Kazeem, appreciated the good gesture of the former Minister on behalf of both Junior and Senior Schools, praying to Almighty God to bless Sen. Ogunlewe and the entire Global Mandate.

Speaking with MegaXpression Media, Prince Olaide Kayode Emmanuel, whose Scholarship Scheme was named in his name and the Foundation was named after his Dad, Late Oba Adebamide Olaide Memorial Foundation, applauded Senator Adeseye Ogunlewe for this laudable gesture, noting that it's not the first time of the Senator, by extending the good gesture to Keme Balogun Schools.

"Sen. Ogunlewe has been doing this as far back as 1995 and I was one of the beneficiaries of his scholarship then. I equally attended this school about thirty years ago and I give glory to God for where I am today. Where you come from does not determine who you will be, you are the only one that can put limitation on yourself, nothing in life can limit you from getting to the greater height you want to attain in life.

"Giving back to the community should be a way of life, other Stakeholders across Ikorodu Division should also assist the students and telling them that whatever they are doing, they should take it seriously as regard to education.

"To the students, this is meant to encourage everybody to succeed and we want you to know that the scholarship programme that we started is a very competitive programme. What we intended to do is to encourage you to aspire to do great in life, if you are not one of the recipients today, you don't have to feel bad, but I want this to prepare you to be among the recipients next time and beyond.

"As regard the best student that had the best results in WEAC in the whole of West Africa in the year 2016, Caroline Oluwadare, presently studying Accountancy in FUNAB 
and she will be writing her final stage in ICAN,  Senator Adeseye Ogunlewe has promised to support her to any level she wish because she has made her school and Lagos State proud," Prince Olaide explained.

The Iyalode of Igbogbo Kingdom, Chief Mrs Karimot Ojikutu, in her remarks advised the students to remain focused and do away with bad gangs. "Don't emulate bad behaviour and don't indulge yourselves in indecent dressing, because you will surely be addressed the way you dress," she pleaded.

The programme was equally graced with the presence of Prince Akeem Awosanya, Prince Leke Shoberu, Princess Jemilat Olaide, Otun Iyalode of Ibeshe, amongst others.
