As the founder of the Anamero Idofe Foundation, I am humbled and grateful for the opportunity God and the people have given me to make a difference in the lives of young students through this foundation. This year marks the 13th edition of the Anamero Idofe Foundation WAEC Enrollment initiative for the 2024/2025 academic year, where we are committed to providing free WAEC enrollment for 5,000 eligible students in Edo State.
A Legacy of Giving Back
Last year, we successfully enrolled 10,000 students, though we faced some challenges due to political influences and interference. Despite these obstacles, which resulted in funds ending up in the wrong hands, we are resolute in our mission. This setback has only strengthened our commitment to transparency and integrity in every aspect of this exercise.
Reflecting on my own life, I recall a difficult time in 1987 when I almost had to abandon my educational pursuits due to a lack of funds to cover the 500-naira WAEC enrollment fee. This personal experience motivated me to ensure that other students do not face similar barriers to education. For the past 13 years, I have made it my responsibility to give back to society by funding this annual WAEC enrollment program.
Call for Charity and Community Giving
I would like to use this opportunity to encourage everyone to embrace charity and find ways to give back to society, no matter how small the gesture. Through our collective efforts, we can make a positive impact in the lives of many who need it most.
Congratulations to the 2024/2025 WAEC Enrollment Committee
I am pleased to congratulate the 2024/2025 WAEC enrollment committee, led by Dr. Waziri Edeh as chairman. This committee has been entrusted with the important role of ensuring that the enrollment process is carried out transparently and that deserving students are selected. I urge them to carry out their duties diligently, upholding fairness and integrity throughout the process.
Once again, thank you to everyone for your support, and congratulations to all who are part of this endeavor. Together, we are creating opportunities and securing a brighter future for the youth of Edo State.
Hon. Anamero Sunday Dekeri MHR,
Etsako Federal Constituency
