Nigerian Afrobeats sensation, Ruger, has extended a generous hand to his alma mater by donating 50 laptops and awarding a scholarship to a deserving student, underscoring his commitment to youth empowerment and educational advancement.
The “Asiwaju” crooner made the philanthropic gesture during a visit to Mavin Junior School, where he once studied. Ruger’s donation aims to bridge the digital divide and inspire academic excellence in a country where many schools still grapple with a lack of basic learning tools.
In addition to the tech donation, the singer offered a fully-funded scholarship to a standout student, covering tuition and school essentials. The act of generosity has drawn widespread praise from fans, school staff, and the broader community.
“This is just the beginning. I believe in giving back, especially to where my journey began,” Ruger stated during the presentation ceremony.
His move is part of a growing trend among Nigerian entertainers who are leveraging their platforms to invest in education and community development.
