Akibu Qudus Oluwasegun was learning carpentry during school hours

According to Akintayo, Qudus worked with his uncle on the site as his mother could not send him to school, while his dad was late.

The businessman had also found out the kid learnt carpentry instead of being in school and took it upon himself to sponsor his education.

"...I met this boy on one of our construction sites, working with his Uncle, and learning carpentry during school hours.

"I challenged the Uncle that I don’t want child labour on my site and he claim his dad was late and the mum couldn’t afford to send him to school.

"We enrolled him in school that month and this is his latest result, for the first time no F...," Akintayo remarked.

From the BECE result, Qudus scored A's in 10 subjects, including mathematics and English, but had a 'C' in Nigerian language subjects.

Akintayo noted that Qudus is just one of the over 5,000 kids benefitting from the Stephen Akintayo Foundation scholarship initiative which kickstarted 14 years ago. In his words:

"He is just one out of over 5000 who have benefited since we started 14 years ago.

"Now you see why God is blessing me. I have thousands of kids I must pay their tuition yearly. It’s such a privilege for the table to flip from the boy whose mother used to take loan to send to school to now being in position of sending many to school.

"Thank you Jesus."
