During the distribution event held at St. James’ Mega Primary School in Akure, Adegbomire announced that his donation included 60,000 notebooks, laptops, public address systems, projectors, magnetic boards, and school bags, with 10,000 notebooks allocated to each of the six local government areas within the district.

We are trying to provide a proper environment for students to learn,” he added.

He asserted, “Senator Adegbomire has not only demonstrated his commitment to education but has also set a precedent for future investments in the academic sector.
