CSR: Footy Homes gifts 1.5 million worth of land to the overall best graduates of media school
In recognition of an outstanding academic achievement at the recently held maiden convocation program of the Royal Sky Media Academy Ibadan, Footy Homes & Properties has gifted a plot of land worth 1.5 million naira to Gbolahan Oni, who emerged as the overall best student of the broadcasting school.
While presenting the document of the land to Gbolahan Oni, the founder and CEO of Footy Group, Olamuyiwa Abdulazeez said the decision to reward the scholar with land was driven by a desire to promote academic excellence and also in line with the corporate social responsibility (CSR) policy of the firm.
Footy Group is a distinguished real estate firm formed years back by Olamuyiwa Abdulazeez, an ex-professional footballer with a desire to revolutionize the housing scene in Nigeria and beyond.
“The proprietor of Royal Sky Media Academy, Asiwaju Enitan Olusegun Bamidele is one of our brand’s Ambassadors and moreover, we are known for excellent services, and in line with that, we don’t hesitate to celebrate excellence. This is why we decided to honour Royal Sky’s overall best-graduating student,” said Footy Group boss.
He added that “in today’s world, people tend to glorify those involved in immoral activities and neglect those who excel academically. Here at Footy Group, we celebrate excellence whenever we see it.
He added that his firm has the Footy Foundation, under which there is the ‘Footy Share and Care Initiative,’ which caters for aged, widowed, and less privileged members of the community.
“Outreach initiatives from the Footy Foundations are an actual illustration of our dedication to improving the lives of the elderly, the ailing, and the underprivileged. We work to provide comfort, hope, and assistance to those who are most in need through a number of focused initiatives.”
In his remarks, the beneficiary, Gbolahan Oni thanked the real estate company for the land gifts, acknowledging the gesture as a valuable contribution and recognition of his hard work.
