The Zenith Labour Party (ZLP) candidate for Ibarapa Central/North Federal Constituency, Hon. Gabriel Timileyin Micheal, popularly known as GTMIKE, has paid the acceptance fee of the One-Day Chairman, Olanrele Tumininu Dasola, fulfilling the first part of his pledge to support her university education.
The payment followed GTMIKE’s promise made during a special engagement at Brybos Hotel on Sunday, October 18, 2026, where he offered Tumininu a first-year scholarship to support her studies.
The scholarship, according to GTMIKE, covers her acceptance fee, tuition fees, and feeding allowance throughout her first year at the University of Ibadan, where she recently secured admission to study Veterinary Medicine.
Tumininu, an alumnus of the Angels Heights College, Ayete, who emerged victorious in an essay and debate competition organised a few months ago by the Executive Chairman of Ibarapa North Local Government, Hon. Lateef Adebare Lawal, (Akorede), served as One-Day Chairman of the local government on October 15, 2026.
A payment receipt made available to this medium shows that GTMIKE transferred ₦50,000 to Tumininu Dasola Olanrele’s account, with the transaction description stating, “FOR YOUR ACCEPTANCE FEE.”
GTMIKE said the sponsorship was intended to ease the financial burden of starting university and allow her to concentrate on her academic pursuits.
The payment marks the first step in fulfilling his scholarship commitment as Tumininu prepares to begin her university education. With the acceptance fee paid, attention now turns to the fulfilment of the remaining parts of the scholarship, including tuition fees and feeding allowance.
