Alhamdulillah. 🌟
Last week Wednesday was the grand finale of the Zakat and Sadaqat Foundation 2026 Business Plan Competition.
We attended the Grand Finale of the ZSF Business Plan Competition 11th Edition at Airport Hotel, Ikeja, Lagos and came home as a Runner-Up Finalists. All praise is due to Allah alone.
I will be honest, results like this come with a mix of emotions. But the Prophet (SAW) taught us that whatever Allah decrees for the believer is good. And so we choose gratitude for the privilege, for the preparation, for the community that supported us, and for every lesson this journey has given us.
To my team, My Family, My support system, My Customers, everyone who prayed for us, shared our story, and believed in Lanzee Collections before the world did, Jazakumullahu khayran. This belongs to all of us.
To the Star Winners, Congratulations. May Allah bless your businesses, multiply your impact, and make you a means of goodness for your communities. 🤲
To the ZSF, Jazakumullahu khayran for the 11th edition of turning Zakat into dignity, and Sadaqah into self-sufficiency. What you do is ibadah. May Allah expand your capacity to give and multiply your rewards.
As for Lanzee Collections, This is not the end of anything. It is the beginning of everything. We return to Abeokuta with a cash grant, a wider network, sharpened focus, and a business that has now been seen on a national stage. We will intensify. We will scale. We will be back.
Watch this space. The best of Lanzee Collections is still ahead. 🧢✨
