Lagos and public schools' infrastructure renewal | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World News

The administration of Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu in Lagos State clearly understands the key role education can play in transforming society. This explains the decision of the administration to make education a foremost part of its T.H.E.M.E.S Developmental Agenda.

No doubt, the results are becoming visible as Governor Sanwo-Olu recently declared that a total of 1,449 infrastructural projects have been commissioned in 1,036 Schools across the State, while 96,334 dual composite units of furniture were supplied to primary and secondary schools across the state. As he is doing across all sectors in the State, the governor is not just talking the talk, he is also working the talk. Recently, his administration delivered a brand new edifice at the Junior Secondary School in Elemoro community in Ibeju Lekki Local Government Area.

Inaugurating the school built behind Area J Police Command in Elemoro, the Governor said the project was dear to his heart, as its delivery demonstrated fulfillment of his campaign pledge to Oke Odo-Elemoro-Iwerekun community. Aside from the 18-classroom block, the school also has 12 standard classrooms, six special rooms for Home Economics, Technology, a studio for arts and music, a science laboratory, a library and an ICT room. It also has teachers’ offices, sickbay, standard canteen block, and over 30 toilet facilities.

Recall that Sanwo-Olu has earlier commissioned a new 180-bed female hostel, 12-classroom block and other school facilities at the Lagos State Model College, Igbokuta. In her words: “It is indeed wonderful to see that in less than three years, the State has fulfilled most of the promises made to a significant extent in terms of investment in the quality of teaching and learning in Lagos”.
