Olamijuwonlo Alao-Akala, has awarded a full university scholarship to Adeleke Joshua Adedamola, a secondary school student of Smith International Baptist Academy, Seminary, Ogbomoso, Oyo State.
The lawmaker made the announcement during a video call with the brilliant student, who scored 350 in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME)—the highest JAMB score recorded in Ogbomoso this year.
Hon. Alao-Akala also held a separate conversation with Joshua’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Adeleke, commending them for their son’s exceptional academic achievement and sharing in their joy.
The scholarship, according to the lawmaker, will cover Joshua’s tuition fees for the entire duration of his university education in any institution of his choice within Nigeria.
“I am committed to promoting and rewarding academic excellence in my constituency. This scholarship is part of my broader mission to create opportunities for our children and youth to thrive. I believe in Joshua’s potential and I am proud to support his academic journey,” Hon. Alao-Akala stated.
He also encouraged Joshua to remain focused and continue to shine as a beacon of excellence, assuring him of his continuous support.
“Go out and continue shining, Star Boy. Keep the flag flying high—I will be rooting for you,” he added.
