The new appointee is the brain behind the Countryside Emerging Leaders Fellowship (CELF), a platform that brings together teenagers from rural Kwara for mentorship, life coaching, and educational advancement through scholarship. Some outstanding CELF fellows currently enjoy state government's scholarships up to their first degree.
