Adeagbo said: “This award is a reminder that our efforts are making a difference in the lives of children. Education is a powerful tool for change, and we are committed to ensuring that every child, regardless of their circumstances, has the opportunity to learn and succeed.”
While commending Adeagbo on the feat, her organisation, IA-Foundation, said the award reflects Adeagbo’s dedication to creating sustainable educational opportunities and empowering the next generation.
It said her work had continued to inspire change and positive impact not just in Nigeria but across various communities globally.
