Hon. Akinlayo Secures Federal Scholarships for Two Ekiti Students, More to Benefit Soon

Hon. Kolawole Davidson Akinlayo has secured federal scholarships for two exceptional students from Ekiti North Federal Constituency II, a development insiders say is just the first step in a broader plan to ease financial burdens for bright but underprivileged scholars in the constituency.

The beneficiaries, Adekunle Adedayo Fatimat from Ido/Osi and Abayomi Bola Grace from Moba, both students at the Federal University of Oye Ekiti (FUOYE), now have access to fully funded academic support—a rare opportunity that significantly reshapes their educational future.

Sources close to the lawmaker confirm that this initiative is part of a larger strategy to increase federal education interventions in Ekiti, with Akinlayo already pushing for more slots in the next round of scholarships. Speaking on the development, he assured that more students would soon benefit, signaling a shift in how political representation translates into direct impact for constituents.

As financial constraints continue to threaten the academic dreams of many, Akinlayo’s move is being seen as a game-changer, setting a new precedent for constituency-focused educational support.
