6. Farmers Palliative House: A facility where local farmers can receive essential support and resources.
7. Women Affairs Club: Focused on supporting the women of Oyo State, empowering them through various initiatives and programs.
Dr. Adewale Kolapo Kareem (AKK) has emphasized that this complex is being constructed to provide significant benefits to the people of Oyo State. The grand commissioning of the Boiling Point Complex is scheduled for early next year, during which over ₦5 million will be disbursed to empower members of the community.

This initiative represents a significant step towards community empowerment and economic support.
The Non-Interest Cooperative Association was launched with an initial fund of ₦500,000, with the goal of expanding this amount to ₦100,000,000 through various investments, Insha-Allah. The cooperative is strategically designed to address local economic challenges and aims to create a sustainable model for community development.
