The National Association of Akungba Students (NAAS), National Body, has lauded the Member representing Akoko South-East/South-West Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon. (Dr.) Asiwaju Adegboyega Adefarati, for his commitment to student development through the distribution of laptops and bursary awards.
In a statement signed by its Acting National President, Comr. Faith Akinola (Faytee), alongside the Acting General Secretary, Comr. David O. (Psalmist), and the Acting Public Relations Officer, Comr. Noble E. (Hemmyrald), the association described the gesture as timely and impactful, especially in the face of current economic hardship confronting many families.
According to the statement, Adefarati’s intervention has not only provided financial relief but also reinforced a sense of belonging among students within the constituency. NAAS noted that the initiative demonstrates the lawmaker’s understanding of the critical role education plays in community advancement and nation-building.
The association added that the empowerment programme would serve as a motivation for many students to remain focused on their academic pursuits, while also reducing the rate of school dropouts in Akungba and its environs. NAAS further expressed pride in Adefarati, whom they described as a worthy ambassador of Akungba Akoko, for consistently prioritising the educational welfare of his constituents.
Reaffirming its readiness to collaborate with the lawmaker on future educational interventions, NAAS commended his “astute leadership and compassion,” noting that investments in students today form the foundation of a brighter future for Akoko, Ondo State, and the nation at large.
The association prayed for continued success in his legislative duties and urged him to sustain his commitment to youth and student empowerment.
