Mouka Limited, manufacture of household and industrial foam products, and a member of Dolidol International Group, said it decided to lead the conversation around quality sleep, particularly for students because it is a catalyst for better learning outcomes.
Chief Commercial Officer of Mouka, Dimeji Osingunwa, gave this explanation in Lagos, over the weekend, while announcing the rollout of the sixth edition of the Mouka Award for Excellence.
The award initiative is aimed at promoting academic excellence by advancing the role of quality sleep and urging schools to participate to improve quality sleep for students’ performances.
Osingunwa said academic success is closely linked to sleep quality, pointing out that “Scientific studies have shown that students who enjoy consistent quality sleep perform significantly better academically.”

He said with over six decades of experience in providing sleep solutions, Mouka remains committed to supporting education and wellness through innovation and impactful Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives such as these.
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).
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. And in line with this, Mouka is calling on proprietors and administrators of secondary and tertiary institutions to enroll their schools in the programme.
To support students’ wellbeing, Osingunwa said Mouka has also tailored products specifically for learners, pointing out, for instance, that its Dreamtime mattress for children offers water-resistant yet breathable protection.
