Tech business juggernaut, Abiodun Atobatele has launched Abiodun and Yinka Atobatele (AYA) Foundation as part of efforts to contribute to education, healthcare, and community development.
According to the foundation, its recent launch event on November 11 of the Igbein Tech Skills Acquisition Centre and the Bilikisu Iyabode Memorial Health Centre in Abeokuta, unveiled the foundations initiatives, while, as Atobatele said, also marked a significant stride towards shaping a brighter future for Nigeria.
He said that the centres, inaugurated by the Alake of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Aremu Gbadebo III, represent access and a hopeful future for countless underprivileged young Nigerians who are seeking opportunities in the tech industry and require healthcare support.
According to the statement, ‘‘Once the facilities were declared open, Atobatele handed them over to the Abiodun and Yinka Atobatele Foundation (AYA Foundation), which would manage the supplies and maintenance, going forward.Â
Abiodun is cofounder of AYA Foundation with his wife, Dr Yinka.
‘‘The foundation’s holistic approach, encompassing education and healthcare, offers hope for a brighter tomorrow. Abiodun’s unwavering commitment to the nation’s well-being is evident in these endeavours, positioning the AYA Foundation as a beacon of hope illuminating a path toward a more promising future for all Nigerians.’’
“My vision for the AYA Foundation is to create a lasting impact on Nigeria, one community at a time,” said Abiodun.
Abiodun Atobatele’s journey began in 2007 with the founding of ATB Techsoft Solutions Limited.
