The Muibi Komolafe Oluwo Foundation has distributed Ramadan palliative packages to residents of Epe, bringing relief and joy to several families during the holy month.
Epe Insights reports that the outreach took place on Sunday, February 8, as beneficiaries gathered to receive food items and other support provided by the foundation in memory of the late Balogun of Epe Land, Muibi Oluwo.
The charitable initiative is part of efforts by the family to sustain the legacy of community service and generosity associated with the late chief.
Residents who benefited from the programme expressed appreciation to the foundation for the timely intervention during the Ramadan period.
The foundation was established to honour the memory of Muibi Oluwo and to continue the humanitarian values he was known for while alive.
Speaking in an interview, one of his daughters, Kudirat Popoola, explained that the Ramadan palliative programme began in 2025.
She noted that the current exercise represents the second edition of the distribution initiative organized by the family foundation.
According to her, the gesture was inspired by the family’s love for the community and their determination to keep their father’s legacy alive.
She also described the programme as a way of appreciating the traditional institution in Epe.
Popoola acknowledged the support and recognition of the Kamorudeen Ishola Animashaun, the Oloja of Epe, who conferred the title of Ashipa of Epe Land on Akim Durojaiye Oluwo, one of the sons of the late Balogun.
She explained that the recognition further strengthened the family’s resolve to continue giving back to the community.
Popoola assured residents that the foundation plans to expand the initiative in the coming years.
She expressed optimism that future editions would reach a larger number of beneficiaries across Epe and surrounding communities.
According to her, the foundation remains committed to supporting vulnerable residents and promoting acts of kindness within the society.
Also speaking at the event, Ibn Imam Ibrahim Badrudeen, Imam of the Idi-Aba Ratibi Mosque in Apakeji, commended the children of the late chief for sustaining their father’s legacy.
He praised the foundation for promoting compassion and community support through the Ramadan outreach programme.
The cleric encouraged the family not to limit the initiative to the Ramadan season alone.
He suggested that the programme could be expanded to occur quarterly or at least twice a year.
According to him, such initiatives help support less privileged members of society and strengthen community solidarity.
The Imam also called on other well-to-do individuals to emulate similar charitable gestures.
He noted that collective support from community members can significantly improve the welfare of vulnerable families.
Community leaders and residents who attended the distribution programme also commended the foundation’s efforts.
They described the initiative as a meaningful contribution to social welfare within Epe.
Many beneficiaries expressed gratitude to the Oluwo family and prayed for the continued success of the foundation’s humanitarian activities.
Observers noted that initiatives like the Ramadan palliative distribution help strengthen the bond between families, community leaders and residents.
The Muibi Komolafe Oluwo Foundation reaffirmed its commitment to expanding the programme and sustaining the charitable legacy of the late Balogun of Epe Land.
