Femi Oyetola, Son of Former Osun Governor, Donates Over N52 Million to Youths for Eid al-Adha

In celebration of Eid al-Adha, businessman and philanthropist Mr. Oluwafemi Oyetola, son of former Osun State Governor and current Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Alhaji Isiaka Adegboyega Oyetola (CON), has donated N52,725,000 to support young people across Osun State.

The financial aid was distributed among youths in all 30 local government areas and the Modakeke Area Office. Beneficiaries included youth leaders, socio-political youth groups, and various youth-focused networks.

According to the coordinator of the initiative, Mr. Kehinde Ayantunji, each local government received N1.5 million to support various groups and individuals during the Sallah celebration. Selected beneficiaries received cash support ranging from N20,000 to N50,000, based on clearly defined categories that ensured gender balance and broad youth representation.

This act of generosity follows Mr. Oyetola’s similar effort last year, where he donated 31 cows along with financial support to the same areas for the Eid celebration.

In addition to the monetary donations, food items and gift packages were also shared with vulnerable individuals and selected youth organizations across the state.

Mr. Oluwafemi Oyetola continues to demonstrate a strong commitment to youth empowerment and community development in Osun State.
