A Legacy of
Giving Back

The Rauf Badamosi Foundation (RBF) is a passion-driven charity organisation focused on the economic and material upliftment of indigent and vulnerable members of Nigerian society. RBF was instituted by international businessman and philanthropist, Dr Jimoh Rauf Badamosi, CEO of JRB Group, in loving memory of his late father, Alhaji Rauf Badamosi.

"He was a professional commercial motor driver who believed in hard work and a life of contentment — guided by the philosophy of live and let live."

Though originally from Osun State, the late Rauf Badamosi grew up and lived his entire life in Ibagwa Aka, Igbo Eze South Local Government Area, Enugu State. The Foundation stands as a fitting legacy to his loving memory — committed to creating a peaceful, happy and progressive society with less poverty, hunger and hardship.

RBF is duly registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) under the Companies and Allied Matters Act, 1990 of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Dr Jimoh Rauf Badamosi Unveils Foundation in Honour of Late Father

December 2024 · Abuja

The Founder and Chief Executive Officer of JRB Group, Dr Jimoh Rauf Badamosi, formally unveiled the Rauf Badamosi Foundation (RBF) — a humanitarian and charitable organisation dedicated to the economic empowerment and social upliftment of underserved communities across Nigeria.

The Foundation was inaugurated at a well-attended ceremony held at Excellence Hotel, Abuja, in December 2024. The event attracted a distinguished audience including federal lawmakers, business leaders, captains of industry, technocrats and members of the Badamosi family — coinciding with JRB Group's 2024 End-of-Year celebration.

Dr Badamosi stated that all existing philanthropic initiatives will be consolidated under the Foundation to ensure greater coordination, efficiency and impact — with a clear commitment to collaboration with NGOs, grassroots institutions, educational and healthcare providers, and community stakeholders.

"Our goal is to streamline our community service initiatives into a unified framework that ensures efficiency, accountability, and greater reach. That is the essence of the Foundation." — Dr Jimoh Rauf Badamosi, Founder

The event was chaired by Hon. Tarkighir Dickson Dominic, Member of the House of Representatives, who described Dr Badamosi as a "quiet philanthropist" whose acts of generosity are both inspiring and worthy of emulation.

Dr Mrs Favour Ugwuanyi (MNI), a retired Permanent Secretary in the Enugu State Civil Service, highlighted several intervention programmes already implemented — particularly in Ibagwa-Aka, Igbo-Eze South Local Government Area of Enugu State.

Interventions to date include construction and rehabilitation of access roads, renovation of schools and healthcare facilities, provision of electricity transformers, installation of water boreholes, empowerment of hundreds of individuals through grants and skills programmes, distribution of motorcycles to young entrepreneurs, WAEC/NECO examination sponsorships, medical outreaches and the JRB Prize for Renewable Energy.

In her welcome address, Mrs Hadiza Jimoh-Rauf Badamosi, Executive Vice Chairman, expressed confidence in the Foundation's capacity to meet its objectives and make meaningful contributions to society.

Dr Jimoh Rauf Badamosi is a distinguished Nigerian entrepreneur, international businessman, philanthropist, and humanitarian. A native of Ikirun in Ifelodun Local Government Area of Osun State, he was born and raised in Igbo-Eze South Local Government Area of Enugu State, where he had his early education.

He studied Public Administration at the Federal Polytechnic Nasarawa and later attended Nasarawa State University, Keffi. In recognition of his outstanding humanitarian contributions, he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate Degree by the Federal College of Dental Technology and Therapy, Enugu.

Dr Badamosi began his entrepreneurial journey as a timber supplier and trader across Nsukka, Enugu, and Abuja. He later developed expertise in the renewable energy sector through professional training and mentorship with international firms, including Anji Dasol Science and Technology Limited and JVG Technology.
