CELEBRATING DONALD: THREE TERMS. THREE FIRST PLACES. ONE EXCEPTIONAL YEAR.

Some results deserve more than a number.
Throughout the 2025/2026 academic session, Emmanuel Donald Olamilekan, a KwaraETF Scholarship beneficiary from Ifelodun LGA, consistently stood out as the strongest-performing beneficiary in the cohort.

First Term: 1st
Second Term: 1st
Third Term: 1st

Across all three terms, Donald maintained the highest average among the 11 beneficiaries, finishing the session with an impressive 80.6% average. He also consistently achieved distinctions across core subjects and was promoted on merit.

But what makes Donald’s achievement particularly remarkable is not simply where he finished. It is the consistency behind it.

Term after term, he showed that academic excellence is not a one-off performance. It is built through discipline, commitment and sustained effort.

Donald’s journey is exactly the kind of outcome the KwaraETF Scholarship Programme hopes to support: identifying potential, providing opportunity, and creating the conditions for young people to thrive.

Today, we recognise Donald not only for coming first, but for staying first — all year long.

Congratulations, Donald. We are proud of you.

And to every Kwara child working hard to reach their potential: keep going. Your opportunity may be closer than you think.
