Olamide Junaid Foundation Brings Holiday Cheer to Ibadan’s Needy Families
In a heartwarming display of generosity, the Olamide Junaid Foundation once again reached out to thousands of underprivileged households in Ibadan North during its annual Christmas charity event. This initiative, held on December 24, 2025, aimed to foster a spirit of gratitude and communal support throughout the festive period.
“Love in Action”: A Mission to Uplift Every Household
Under the inspiring theme “Love in Action: A Christmas for Every Family,” the foundation’s outreach was spearheaded by Dr. Olamide Balikiss Junaid. The program focused on delivering essential food supplies and heartfelt care to vulnerable populations, providing much-needed relief amid ongoing economic challenges.
Commitment to Alleviating Poverty and Hardship
Dr. Junaid, a prominent APC figure and aspirant for the Ibadan North Federal Constituency seat, emphasized the foundation’s dedication to combating poverty through consistent community support. She highlighted that such philanthropic efforts are crucial in easing the burdens faced by many families, especially during the holiday season.
Enduring Support and Community Collaboration
Reassuring the beneficiaries, Dr. Junaid pledged that the foundation’s work would persist beyond seasonal events, aiming to create lasting improvements in the quality of life for residents. The event also featured notable APC leaders, including Shakirat Tinuade Adigun (APC Women Leader), Abdulakeem Adebiyi (APC leader), Inaolaji Akinloye (APC youth leader), Lowo Obisesan (former Commissioner for Environment), and Omilabu Ghandii. Each praised the foundation’s impactful contributions to Ibadan North and its surrounding communities.
Expanding the Reach of Compassion
As Nigeria continues to face socio-economic hurdles, initiatives like those of the Olamide Junaid Foundation play a vital role in bridging gaps and fostering hope. Recent data from the National Bureau of Statistics indicates that over 40% of Nigerians live below the poverty line, underscoring the importance of sustained charitable efforts. By mobilizing resources and community leaders, the foundation exemplifies how targeted outreach can make a tangible difference.
