Olawoyin Edris’s recent visit to Imowonla, a rural community in the Ikorodu area of Lagos, revealed the inspiring story of Sultan Hanafi Royal Schools and its profound impact on education and community development.
Observations on the ground reveal that Sultan Hanafi Royal Schools’ impact extends far beyond conventional education. It serves as a blueprint for how education can be a vehicle for transformative social change within marginalized communities. By investing in both academic and character development, the school nurtures not just students’ minds, but also their potential to influence society positively.
“My father was a workaholic and family-oriented man. He believed so much in acts of charity that he had no savings for himself. We learnt that from him. The nature of our family is to share the little we have with the people around us. We all embraced this act because we observed that the more we give, the more we get blessed by God.”
“One thing I look out for in schools is the caliber of teachers they have. This is because most schools, especially private schools don’t employ quality teachers. So for me certified, skilled and professional teachers is an important criterion, and I see all that in the school because, in most of their recruitments, they look for teachers with NCE or BSc-EDU,” he added.
Mr. Adebisi Ismail Adeniyi, one of the Community Development Associations chairmen in the Imowonla community affirmed that the school has contributed immensely to the development of the community. “Sultan Hanafi Royal Schools has been actively involved in humanitarian and community development activities, Mr. Adeniyi said.
