While donating educational materials to Better Base Foundation, the only school  in the remotest part of  Gwaladna community with no fewer than 83 pupils, a gesture replicated in Asokoro Junior Secondary school,  Abuja Municipal Area council, the club identified funding as critical factor in the transformation of education at the basic level.

Adeleke said even though the club has been doing a lots to ameliorate the suffering of the people and give hope to hopeless communities in the areas of basic health care and basic education and literacy amongst others, there’s need for government, others to reach out to the remote communities, make basic education accessible.

She said, “In the spirit of our Independence Day celebration, there’s need for government, individuals, corporate organizations, NGOs to be intentional about making basic education accessible to every citizens irrespective of our culture, religion and geographical environments if we must grow as a developed nation, because there can’t be a developed nation without a developed minds or people”.
