Jagunmolu gives scholarships to two children of late Islamic Cleric
By Stephen Olufemi Oni, Ilorin
The Proprietor of Al- Hikmah University, Ilorin, who is also the Jagunmolu and Asiwaju of Igbominaland, Alhaji Chief (Dr) Abdulraheem Oladimeji (OFR) has offered scholarship awards to two children of the late Islamic Cleric, Sheikh Abdulganiyu Aboto.
Alhaji Oladimeji announced the award at Igboroko, Alfa- Aboto community in Asa local government area of Kwara State during the fidau prayer in honor of the repose of the soul of the deceased.
The Jagunmolu who is also the Baba Oba of Offa Kingdom said the award covers from undergraduate to postgraduate levels of the children, adding that the scholarship also covers the children’s tuition fees, levies and convocation fees.
He, however, stressed the need for the children to satisfy both WAEC and JAMB requirements, urging them to the study Al- Hikmah University brochure for more details.
The Asiwaju and Jagunmolu of Igbomina Land disclosed that the candidates can apply for any course of study, not necessarily in Arabic or Islamic Studies, that is available in Al- Hikmah University, Ilorin.
He described late Shiehk Abdulganiyu Aboto as a steadfast, contented, pious and peace loving cleric who would be missed for his non controversial, non confrontational preachings not only in his community and state, but also across the nation and the entire Muslim environment.
He said the deceased was known for his devotion to da’awah that is Islamic propagation both within and outside the state.
Alhaji Oladimeji prayed Allah to grant him aljannat Firdaus and comfort his family, community and followers to bear the irreparable loss.

Investigations by Nigerian Concord Newspaper reveal that the Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Shippers Council, Mr. Pius Akutah, has allegedly misappropriated public funds for a lavish lifestyle.
According to our findings, within months of assuming office, Akutah allegedly purchased a bulletproof SUV valued at approximately N850 million. In addition, he is reported to have acquired over twenty exotic SUVs for use as a convoy.
Akutah is also said to have acquired multiple high-value properties, including three in Abuja’s Maitama and Asokoro districts worth over N2 billion, and two in Lagos’ Banana Island valued at N1.8 billion. These acquisitions appear far beyond the scope of his official salary and allowances.
Further investigation suggests that Akutah may be using public funds to support political ambitions, including allegedly grooming militants across 23 local government areas in Benue State for a potential 2027 gubernatorial bid.
Staff of the Shippers Council reportedly claim that Akutah frequently accesses the council’s treasury without proper authorization. Some insiders have indicated that a petition will soon be filed with the EFCC, ICPC, and the Presidency to report his alleged misconduct.
