  "summary": "Former Senate President and Baba Adinni of the Ansar-Ul-Islam Society of Nigeria, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, has highlighted the Az-Zumratul Adabiyyatul Kamaliyyah School of Arabic and Islamic Studies as a defining institution and enduring identity of Ilorin and Kwara State. Speaking at the grand finale and public presentation of the centenary book of the school, Saraki emphasized that the institution's 100th anniversary is a rare milestone deserving gratitude to Almighty Allah. He noted that few institutions in Nigeria have survived a century while continuing to grow in strength and relevance, and affirmed that the school's continued existence and development reaffirm Ilorin's position as a Centre and City of Knowledge. Saraki also praised the late Sheikh Kamaludeen Al-Adabiyy and his legacy, noting that the school has expanded and given greater expression to his intellectual and spiritual contributions.",
