The Enibokun foundation is a Non-Governmental Organisation committed to the welfare of women and the girl child.

Speaking with newsmen after the inauguration of the foundation, wife of the Speaker, Mrs. Enibokun Rosemary Edoror who doubles as chairperson of the foundation said that, “women are the engine that drives the economy as they are the ones that are found in market places, on the farm and also at homes. “The girl child is the mother of tomorrow, while the youths are the leaders of tomorrow, therefore, Enibokun Edoror foundation is out to take care of our today while also preparing for our tomorrow.

The ceremony was graced by dignitaries from across the state, including a former governor of Edo State, Professor Oserheimen Osunbor, chairman of All Progressive Congress, Edo State, Barr. Anselm Ojezua, State Legislators and several governorship aspirants.
