In its continued commitment to promoting academic excellence and the role of quality sleep in student performance, Mouka, Nigeria’s leading mattress and bedding brand, has announced the rollout of the 6th edition of the Mouka Award for Excellence.
This initiative, birthed in 2020 under Mouka’s fifth CSR pillar, “Skills for Life,” seeks to recognise the best graduating students across Nigerian universities, while advocating the importance of quality sleep in achieving academic distinction.
Past recipients of the Mouka Award for Excellence include reputable institutions such as Nile University of Nigeria (Abuja), Covenant University (Ogun), Achievers University (Owo), and Elizade University (Ondo).
Speaking on the initiative, Dimeji Osingunwa, Chief Commercial Officer of Mouka, noted that academic success is closely linked to sleep quality. “Scientific studies have shown that students who enjoy consistent quality sleep perform significantly better academically,” he said. “At Mouka, we are not only rewarding excellence but also leading the conversation around sleep as a catalyst for better learning outcomes.”
The Mouka Award for Excellence provides cash grants to the best graduating students in each faculty of universities, helping them take the next step in their academic or professional journey. In secondary schools, the grant is awarded to the overall best graduating student.
In line with this, Mouka is calling on proprietors and administrators of secondary and tertiary institutions to enrol their schools in the program by contacting Mouka’s customer service on 09087201966, 09087201967 or through the company’s website, www.mouka.com, where contact details of Regional Managers are available.
To support student wellbeing, Mouka has also tailored products specifically for learners. Its Dreamtime mattress for children offers water-resistant yet breathable protection, while the Comfy (Mouka student mattress) caters to secondary and tertiary institutions with affordable, durable comfort in bunk and single-bed sizes.
“Research has proven that quality sleep supports smartness. Quality sleep refers to both the duration and also the ability of the child to enjoy uninterrupted sleep through the night. The mattress and pillows used play a major role in this equation. That’s why we say sleep well, learn better and excel with Mouka,” Osingunwa added.
Mouka is a trusted Nigerian brand with over six decades of experience in providing sleep solutions. The company remains committed to supporting education and wellness through innovation and impactful CSR initiatives such as these.
