How Mouka has been impacting the Nigerian education sector

With studies revealing that longer sleep duration, better sleep quality and greater sleep consistency improves academic performance, sleep products have become a necessity for students after their daily activities.

Mouka Limited, a beacon in the sleep products industry have been taking giant strides to ensure that parents and students all across Nigeria are getting all as much educational support as possible.

Another research also shows that students who sleep well are more ‘likely to develop innovative ways of solving complex issues mathematically than those with sleep deprivation’.

Based on these research works and many more, which have made the Nigeria Society of Physiotherapy encourage students to prioritize quality sleep, Mouka has continued to manufacture products to aid this cause.

Furthermore, as part of the company’s 5^th CSR pillar called “Skills For Life”, Mouka birthed the Award for excellence initiative in 2020 to recognise and promote academic excellence while advocating the role of quality sleep in the equation.

To this end, Mouka recognised and rewarded the best graduating students from all faculties of the Nile University of Nigeria, Abuja, with cash grants at the school’s convocation ceremony held recently.

Earlier this year also, Mouka rewarded its Business Partners with over N111,000,000 worth of scholarships, high-end laptops and educational materials for their children. In addition, 15 junior staff of Mouka went home with scholarships to the tune of N5,000,000 as an act of goodwill from the company.

Mouka has not relented in its bid to promote academic excellence while advocating the role of quality sleep, as they have now partnered with the organizers of the Total School Support Seminar/Exhibition (TOSSE) which is Africa’s biggest education show to continue to support the education community in Nigeria.

Mouka Limited is one organization whose impact has been felt even outside its own industry, into the education sector.

AvoPizza Fabulous: A new pizza home in Arepo

Before 2012, pizzas were a foreign concept in Nigeria but today we have over 15 different pizza companies in Nigeria.

However, most of these food companies tend to open their pizza shops in major cities like Lagos, Abuja and so on.

*Avo pizza Fabulous enters the scene.

While others went to state capitals and major areas across Nigeria, and that meant that people in other states only had to wait till they visited such places before they could enjoy the pizzas, Avo pizza Fabulous chose to bring the delicious delight of well-baked pizzas to Arepo in Ogun state.

AvoPizza Fabulous also chose to expand their production and sales to other refreshment and sumptuous food consumables like Ice Cream, Chicken and Chips, and bread made in an exclusively hygiene environment and in line with Global Standard on Health and Safety.

The station has now become home to schools, families, organizations and individuals who want to enjoy the delight of pizzas and other food consumables.

As an organization seeking to also use its name to impact the education sector, AvoPizza Fabulous has organized English and mathematics quiz competitions in a bid to also help and engage students academically.

Furthermore, AvoPizza Fabulous have partnered with the organisers of the Total School Support Seminar/Exhibition (TOSSE) in a bid to continue to support the education sector.

The exhibition is set to hold on the 1st and 2nd of September 2022 in Lagos. To register for the event, click here.
