MT BABS Foundation has been a foundation that I’ll forever remember. This foundation aimed at developing academic excellence has helped many students, of which I’m a beneficiary. I remember the day I was granted admission to study Industrial and Production Engineering at FUTA, and things were quite difficult for my parents at that time. With the help of this foundation, I was able to pay my school fees which is a sum of one hundred thousand naira. I’m really grateful to them for this financial assistance, and this really matters a lot to me because it made me believe that there’s someone who believes in me, that I have all it takes to be the best I can be, and that my goals aren’t far fetched. I express my sincere gratitude to Mr. Afolabi Babalola, the founder of MT BABS Foundation, and other sponsors who made this foundation a success. God bless you all.

MTBABSFOUNDATION has benefited many students in which I am opportune to be one of them. My name is Ibukun Adeola, an Agricultural Extension and Rural Development student of the prestigious University of Ibadan, 100 level. My first year in the university is being sponsored by this foundation which is an answered prayer for me, which could have been a barrier to my academics after the deceased of my father. My success story (in the nearest future) will not be complete without the name of this foundation being mentioned. God bless MT Babs Foundation.

Interacting and working with elites and savants from different cultures, philosophies, and backgrounds here on campus has been tremendously and significantly towering my capacity(in integrity, courage, and skill) to help my world.

The MTBabs Scholarship foundation made me realize how the process of being able to work hard for success really is. I've never doubted my ability to succeed ever since I joined the foundation,It builds and strengthened me to face challenges. The textbook provided by the foundation helped a lot because I couldn't afford to buy it, my tuition fees were paid as well. The extra classes like jamb and post utme classes organized was of great help during the exam. I had 301 in 2020 UTME exam
With all these and more I say a big Thank you to the Founder, Mr Afolabi and his friends that are helping him.
I pray he never lack and he will always find favour, his children will be favoured and God will continue to bless and provide for him and give him strength to always be there for us.
