Akachukwu Madueke, a senior in the Communication and Multimedia Design (CMD) program at the American University of Nigeria (AUN), has paid the school fees for 50 students at Government Day Secondary School (GDSS), Jimeta. The generous contribution was made through his Non-Governmental Organisation, ORRIN Global Mines (OGM), during a community service outreach on November 21, 2025.
The initiative aims to reduce school dropouts caused by financial challenges, easing the burden on both students and their families. It also reflects OGM’s ongoing commitment to supporting education and community development in Adamawa State.
The Principal of GDSS Jimeta, Mrs. Talatu Eliasha, expressed her gratitude, calling the gesture a “timely intervention that will help students stay focused on their studies.” She commended Madueke for “setting an example of responsible citizenship and giving back to the community.”
Among the beneficiaries, Aisha Awwal Ahmed, who dreams of becoming a medical doctor, thanked Akachukwu for his support and prayed for God’s continuous blessings on his life. Another student, Mercy Iliya, praised AUN and expressed her profound appreciation to Akachukwu and his NGO.
This initiative demonstrates how individuals and organizations can make a meaningful difference in students’ lives, ensuring access to education for those who need it most.
