One Good Turn Deserves Another – Bola Oyebamiji’s Lasting Impact on Students

In every generation, certain individuals rise above personal ambition to invest in the future of society by supporting its youth. Alhaji Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji, fondly known as AMBO, stands out as one of such rare figures. A passionate advocate for education, AMBO’s consistent support for students across Osun State has made him a household name in student communities, and his efforts continue to yield lasting impact.

A Passion for Educational Empowerment

From the beginning of his public life, Bola Oyebamiji has shown unwavering commitment to the cause of education. Understanding that many students are held back by financial constraints, he has made it a personal mission to ensure that no ambitious student is left behind because of a lack of funds.

Through regular sponsorships, AMBO has paid for the West African Examinations Council (WAEC), the National Examinations Council (NECO), and the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) registration fees for countless students across Osun State. These crucial interventions have enabled students from disadvantaged backgrounds to pursue higher education and achieve their dreams.

His sponsorships have not been limited to payments alone; he has also supported tutorial centers and provided study materials to ensure that the students are not only registered for exams but are well-prepared to excel in them.

Building Institutions for Future Generations

Beyond individual sponsorships, AMBO’s vision for educational development is broad and sustainable. A shining example is his construction of the ultra-modern Secretariat for the National Association of Ikire Students (NAIS) National Headquarters. This Secretariat, complete with a library extension, stands as a lasting gift to the student community — a center for learning, leadership, and collaboration.

The facility provides a physical space for students to organize programs, hold meetings, and access academic resources. In an environment where access to conducive study spaces is often limited, AMBO’s gesture has bridged a critical gap for the students of Ikire and surrounding communities.

Such infrastructural development reflects his understanding that nurturing young minds requires not only financial support but also the provision of an environment that fosters academic excellence and civic engagement.

A Friend, Father, and Mentor to Students

What sets AMBO apart is not just the volume of his support but the personal attention and care he shows to the students. Beneficiaries often describe him as more than a philanthropist — he is a father figure, mentor, and source of inspiration.

Students have recounted stories of how his interventions came at critical moments when their educational dreams were about to collapse. Many who benefited from his generosity have gone on to become university graduates, professionals, and leaders in their own rights. His legacy is not built on empty promises but on tangible, life-changing actions.

One Good Turn Deserves Another

Today, as Alhaji Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji steps forward to seek the governorship of Osun State, it is clear that he has earned the trust and loyalty of students across the state. His consistent, genuine support for their education has built a reservoir of goodwill that few can match.

Students, who are often the most powerful agents of social and political change, now have the opportunity to reciprocate his many years of kindness. Supporting AMBO’s governorship ambition is not just about politics — it is about recognizing a man who has invested in their future without expecting anything in return.

With AMBO at the helm of affairs, students can be assured of policies that prioritize education, youth empowerment, and infrastructural development. His track record shows that he will not only speak about development but will act decisively to uplift the younger generation.

The students of Osun State owe it to themselves to rally behind a man who has always stood by them. One good turn, they say, deserves another. AMBO has given his good turn; now, it is time for students to give theirs by supporting his vision for a better, prosperous Osun State.
