IT expert Kunle Buraimoh bagged Osogbo indigenous award for ‘promoting education’

Kunle Buraimoh, an IT expert and philanthropist, has been honored with an Osogbo indigenous award for promoting education through his foundation. 

Kunle Buraimoh is the founder and chairman of the Kunle Buraimoh (KB) Foundation, a platform dedicated to giving scholarship opportunities, writing materials, and encouraging digital literacy in Osogbo, the capital of Osun State.

Buraimoh was among the deserving indigenes honored with the award on Saturday, November 23, by Osogbo sons and daughters.

The ceremony was unmistakably colorful, with indigenes from various sectors and clans of Osogbo’s historic city in attendance. The gathering was a reunion. The recipients of the prizes were chosen for their dexterity, humanitarian work, and contributions to the development of Osogbo.

Kunle Buraimoh was honored with the award in recognition of his usual generous gestures to the needy, particularly youths and children in public primary and secondary schools in Osogbo and other neighboring communities, such as scholarships, registering indigent students for JAMB, providing writing materials, and promoting digital literacy, among other things.

While accepting the award, Buraimoh thanked all Osogbo indigenes at home and abroad, particularly the Royal Father, Oba Jimoh Olanipekun Larooye II, the Ataoja of Osogbo, for his usual tireless efforts to bring all indigenes together for the town’s upliftment.

Buraimoh, who thanked the executive and members of Osogbo Sons & Daughters for the honor, also praised members of the KB Foundation team, led by Mr. Fatai Adekunle, for their devotion and dedication to portraying the foundation’s operations at all times.

While vowing to do more for the growth and progress of Osogbo and its environs, Buraimoh dedicated the award to the glory of Almighty God and his parents, High Chief Jimoh Buraimoh and Mama Adetola Buraimoh, for giving their all to reinforce his purpose in life.
