MOK Foundation to Launch Third Phase of Farm Produce Distribution from 50-Hectare Farmland

Plans are now are now concluded for the third phase of the distribution of farm produce from the MOK Foundation to underprivileged groups in Kwara State. The MOK Foundation, recognized for its significant charitable contributions in Kwara, is set to distribute produce harvested from its expansive 50 hectares of agricultural land.

According to Mr. Saheed Temitope Lawal, the executive director of the foundation, the upcoming distribution will primarily focus on processed cassava. He noted that this initiative aims to support those in need, stating, "Just like we have done in the past, this distribution will follow a similar model. We will be giving out the processed cassava on a first-come, first-served basis." Mr. Lawal also mentioned that they are in the final stages of processing the cassava, ensuring that they adhere to the foundation's tradition of transparency and community engagement. The exact date for the distribution will be communicated to the public soon, as it is being finalized.

It is worth noting that the foundation previously announced the acquisition of 50 hectares of land located in Igbonna, within the Oyun Local Government Area of Kwara State. This land was specifically purchased to cultivate crops and facilitate the distribution of harvested produce to the local population, reinforcing the foundation's commitment to improving food security and supporting those most in need in the community.

Babanla under security cordon as Army goes after criminals

Kwara State Government has established immediate security cordon around Babanla, a community in Ifelodun Local Government, following a security breach by some armed criminals.

The criminals on Friday targeted a police station, attempted to loot a few grocery shops, and a hotel in the community before they were repelled by the security forces and bold members of the community.

In a statement on Friday, the government commended the Nigerian army, gallant policemen, and community folks for the swift response to the situation.

Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, who has been in constant touch with the security commanders and local vigilante, has directed sustained security lockdown of the axis to neutralise the threat and ensure public safety.

“While further briefings are awaited, the Governor reassures the public that concerted efforts are being made in coordination with the Office of the National Security Adviser, to cleanse the area of the criminals,” according to a statement.

“He also urges maximum support and asks the people not to panic as security forces conduct their operations in the area.”

When ₦500 School Fees Becomes a Luxury: My account of impacts with MOK Foundation - By Jimoh Taofik Adekunle

Do you know there are some parents who cannot afford to pay ₦500–₦700 as school fees for their children in public schools?

This may seem absurd, but it comes from my personal experience with the Muhydeen Okunlola Kayode (MOK) Foundation.

In mid-May 2025, I was part of the MOK Foundation team led by its Executive Director, Mr Saheed Lawal Temi Tope Sa'eed that paid school fees for 130 students during courtesy visits to 24 schools in two sessions in Offa LG (11 schools on the first day and 13 on the second. A total of 130 students had their school fees for the term paid during visits. 105 the first day and 25 pupils had theirs paid during the second)

The Foundation also distributed writing materials to pupils from Primary 1 to 3 in all these schools.

In Offa LG, I followed the team to report the distribution to these schools. What I found there was appalling, not appealing. I came to understand that there were some parents who could not afford as little as ₦500 as school fees.

I did not know how to react to that because I could see some pupils who were not wearing good clothes or sandals. I also came to understand that there were parents who said they could not afford ₦500 to ₦700 (depending on the school) per term for their child.

When we reached a religious school, one of the teachers told us that some pupils skipped school for days—or even a whole week. There was a particular case of one who skipped school for three days. When the mother brought him to school on the fourth day, she explained that from Monday to Tuesday, they had not eaten anything at home. It was on Wednesday that God provided them food, so they returned with their child the next day. I did not know how to react to that, but my eyes were misty.

If a parent cannot feed his or her child for one or two days, I cannot imagine a whole household going without food for a day—let alone two. Yes, my four siblings and I were raised by my mom, but there was never a day she did not provide at least two meals daily. We never ran out of food in our house. Mother always found a way.

The teachers also told us that there were students whose school fees they paid themselves because they saw them as exceptional pupils. If they let such pupils go, the class would have very few students left. They would then wait for any politician or foundation, like ours, to come around.

In almost all the schools we visited, we discovered they kept a register for students without uniforms and for those who had not paid their school fees. They would present it to you, call the pupils out, and you would look at them and say, “Oh, come on.”

Kwara Makes List of 10 Nigerian States Offering Paid Six-Month Maternity Leave for Public Servants

Across Nigeria, only ten states have been recognized by the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) as offering fully paid six-month maternity leave to public servants, and Kwara State is one of them.

The other nine states offering this policy to breastfeeding public servants include Cross River, Ekiti, Enugu, Lagos, Kaduna, Niger, Ondo, Oyo, and Plateau.

Kwara earned its place on this list following the recent approval by Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, who extended maternity leave from three to six months, a move that aligns with a similar action taken by his compassionate administration in August 2023.

Governor AbdulRazaq’s approval reflects his administration’s commitment to the welfare of civil servants, particularly nursing mothers. It also demonstrates his administration’s understanding of the importance of early childhood development, maternal health, and work-life balance.

Emir of Ilorin Hails AbdulRazaq, Says Kwara Blessed with His Leadership

The Emir of Ilorin and chairman of Kwara State Traditional Rulers Council, Alh Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, has declared Kwara is lucky to be blessed with Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq.

The Emir spoke when a high- power delegation of the state government paid a condolence visit to his palace in Ilorin over the demise of the district head of Ballah in Asa local government area of the state, Alh Yahaya AbdulKadir.

The delegation which comprised the senior adviser and counselor, Alh Saadu Salahu, special adviser on Special Duties, Alh AbdulRazaq Jiddah and the chairman of the Lower Niger River Basin Development Authority, Ilorin, Alh AbdulLateef Alakawa and senior special assistant on Religion (Islam), Alh Ibrahim Danmaigoro, delivered the governor’s condolence message to the the Emir.

The Emir who described Governor AbdulRazaq as a man highly favored by the Almighty Allah said ” we thank Allah for giving us Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq. We also thank Allah for guiding the governor aright, judging from the successes that his administration has recorded.”

” Every rational person will know that God is behind Governor AbdulRazaq. In quick succession, he was elected as the chairman of the Nigeria’s Governors’ Forum (NGF), honoured with the title of Commander of Order of Niger( CON) and also got the title of Sardauna of Ilorin. These three honours are well-deserved an we are always very proud of his achievements. May Almighty Allah continue to strengthen and protect him,” the Emir added.

Sulu- Gambari, therefore, warned detractors against distracting Governor AbdulRazaq from the good work he’s doing for Ilorin and Kwara as a whole.

Earlier, the chairman of Lower Niger River Basin Development Authority, Alh AbdulLateef Alakawa, had thanked the Emir for his prayer and consistent support for Governor AbdulRazaq.

He reassured the Emir that Governor AbdulRazaq, as a true son of Ilorin Emirate and in following the footsteps of the Emir, is irrevocably committed to the unity and progress of Ilorin Emirate and Kwara at large.
