The Ijaiya family of Offa, a town located in Kwara State, southwestern Nigeria has achieved and made an incredible contribution to the country’s educational system.

As succinctly put by Malcolm X: “Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today,”  and the Ijaiya family adequately prepared for the future.

A town with a population of about 120,100 inhabitants, which places extreme importance to education, Offa currently has over 100 professors serving in various endeavors in Nigeria and abroad.

The Ijaiya family boasts of 10 professors out of the aforementioned figure and you can check them below.
