She disclosed that her dogged resolution to continue to give scholarships to indigent students was borne out of the need to salvage the lives of brilliant and serious students whose success and fulfillment of destiny could be hampered by the financial weakness of their parents.
“Some children are destined for greatness but they are from financially poor families; this could hamper their greatness and fulfillment of destiny. I cannot be alive and be this blessed by God yet afford to see this happen,” Iyalaje Oodua revealed.
