Emzor Supports Asisat Oshoala Foundation to Promote Girl Child Education and Sports
Emzor Pharmaceuticals has once again demonstrated its support for girl child empowerment through a partnership with the company’s Brand Ambassador and 4-Time African Women’s Footballer of the Year, Asisat Oshoala.
The brand ambassador of Emzor Pharmaceuticals and Captain of Nigeria’s Super Falcons believes that ”the society must ensure that everything is done to encourage girl child education”. The FC Barcelona Champions League winner, who was the special guest at the 59th edition of the Annual Inter-house Athletics Competition of Queen’s College, Yaba, Lagos on Saturday, also used the occasion to call for more support for school sports.
Speaking at the event, Osoala said it is high time we appreciated the fact that educating the girl child is one of the major factors in having a very productive and egalitarian society. “There is no doubt that education is important in moving the society forward, and it will therefore be unfortunate, if girls are left behind. In this regard, everything must be done by everyone in the position of authority, to ensure that every girl has access to quality education”.
Also speaking at the event, the Executive Director of Emzor, Mrs Uzoma Ezeoke who is also an ex student of the College, congratulated the school on behalf of Emzor Pharmaceuticals. “Emzor as a brand always associates with success and encourage people to be successful. We are proud to be here and to also have our brand ambassador to associate with the school. We will continue to encourage our young ladies to participate in sports and see sports as a tool for socioeconomic development. There is great prospect in a resourceful combination of sports and education.”
While encouraging the students to aim for success in whatever good thing they are doing, the Barcelona Female Football Club of Spain ace striker, said success is not served on a platter of gold. According to her; “Education and sports work hand in hand. As a student, you don’t need to drop one for another. What you need is discipline. With discipline, the sky is your limit. To achieve greatness in life, everything happens in stages. Whatever the situation, don’t give up. Being at the top of my career today didn’t happen overnight, it was a gradual process.”
Speaking further while handling presenting Emzor Pharmaceuticals’ products and branded materials to the School Principal for all winners of every competition of the day, Oshoala also called for more support for school sports; “I will also encourage the goverment to give more support to school sports. Education is not only about academics, sports also have a role to play in moulding the lives of the young ones. A successful sport person is a disciplined person. He or she is a person of good character and courage. We should do more to help build our young people through sports.”
In her welcome address at the event which was held in compliance with the Federal Ministry of Education’s directives on Covid-19 preventive measures, the Director and Principal of the School, Dr. (Mrs) TFO Yakubu-Oyinloye said, the students are continually proving their worth in not just academics but also in sports. According to her; “Our queens are proving their worth in all spheres of human endeavour, both within and outside the country. Indeed, we are the flagship for girl – education in Nigeria. The college believes in wholesome education. This is education of both the mind and body. Queens College produced notable women in the field of sports amongst whom are; Sonto Okpegbue who represented Nigeria in the African Youth Chess Championship in Zambia in 2015 and Oluyisola-Abiola Gold who also represented Nigeria in the African Youth Chess Championship in South Africa in 2016.”
Meanwhile, one of the main highlights of the occasion was the special football clinic for the College’s football team anchored by the special guest of the occasion, Asisat Oshoala. The students who were very excited to have the football star in their midst also expressed their joy in having such an opportunity. According to the School’s Sports Prefect, Favour Okafor, it was a memorable occasion. “Ours was initially to have a normal inter-house sports, we were not expecting it would be a such a big event where we would have a notable star like Asisat Oshoala not just in our midst but interacting with us. We would never forget this in a jiffy.” She said.
In the sports competition which featured lighting of the Torch of Unity, March Past, Calisthenics and various Athletics events, the defending champion, Obi House emerged the overall winner once again with 14 gold, 11 silver and 5 bronze, Obong came second with 5 gold, 5 silver and 7 bronze, Obasa came third with 5 gold, 4 silver and 7 bronze, Dan Fodio came fourth with 3 gold 7 silver and 4 bronze, Emotan came fifth with 3 gold, 4 silver and 4 bronze while Efunjoke emerged sixth with 3 gold 2 silver and 6 bronze.

Heaven’s Script Unfolds: Prophet Kingsley Aitafo’s 2025 Prophecy on Pope Francis Fulfilled
The world mourns Pope Francis, while a prophetic message echoes with divine accuracy.
Vatican City | April 21, 2025 — In a moment that has shaken the global Catholic community and resonated through spiritual circles worldwide, Pope Francis passed away peacefully on Easter Monday, April 21, 2025, at the age of 88, in his Vatican residence at Casa Santa Marta.
At 9:45 AM, Cardinal Kevin Farrell, Camerlengo of the Apostolic Chamber, made the somber announcement from the Holy See:
“Dearest brothers and sisters, with deep sorrow I must announce the death of our Holy Father Francis… At 7:35 this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the house of the Father…”
But even amid the mourning, another narrative is making headlines — that of divine foresight.
Earlier this year, Nigerian cleric, Prophet Kingsley Aitafo, released a chilling prophecy regarding a “major exit in the Vatican,” naming Pope Francis as the focus of his revelation. Delivered in a January 2025 broadcast, the prophetic message warned of an impending transition in the Catholic Church’s highest office, citing spiritual visions of the Pontiff’s declining health and heavenly summons.
Today, that prophecy has come to pass.
A Voice Crying in the Spiritual Wilderness
Prophet Kingsley Aitafo, known for his bold prophetic utterances and spiritual insights, stated in his January message:
“Pray for the Vatican. I see a great change coming. The one seated shall be taken, and it shall mark a new chapter for the Church.”
While many took the message with caution, some believers rallied in prayer. As the months unfolded, Pope Francis’ health took a notable decline. He was admitted to Agostino Gemelli Polyclinic Hospital on February 14, 2025, for complications from bronchitis. Doctors later diagnosed him with bilateral pneumonia on February 18.
Despite returning to Casa Santa Marta after 38 days of hospitalization to continue recovery, the Holy Father never regained full strength.
The End of an Era
Pope Francis, born Jorge Mario Bergoglio, led the Catholic Church with humility, inclusiveness, and fervent compassion, championing the rights of the poor and marginalized. His papacy was marked by simplicity, progressive reforms, and a call to return to the Gospel’s core values.
As millions grieve, many within the prophetic community are pointing to Aitafo’s message as a profound sign of divine communication and the importance of spiritual sensitivity in turbulent times.
A Call to Spiritual Reflection
Prophet Kingsley, in a statement released hours after the Pope’s death, expressed his condolences while reaffirming the spiritual significance of the moment:
“This was not a wish — it was a word from the Spirit. Let the world understand: when God speaks, it is not to scare, but to prepare. Let us pray for the Church and its future.”
As the Vatican begins its formal mourning and preparations for the conclave, many eyes are now turned toward the heavens — and toward those anointed to see what lies ahead.,
