Success Damian:

Vice Chairman and Supervisory Councilor for Education, Ifelodun Local Council Development Area (LCDA) Hon. Koleosho Olatunbosun Nurudeen has appealed to the Lagos State Government and the State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) to give approval for the establishment of a public Secondary School in the council.

Nurudeen made the appeal while speaking to Journalists at a Sallah party in Ojo Area of the council which he organized to thank Almighty Allah and also appreciate his teeming supporters, friends and well-wishers on Tuesday.

He said the request has become necessary considering the distance which the students from the council go through in order to attend schools in the Local Government Area.

“I plead with the state Government and likewise SUBEB to give approval for the conversion of one of the schools in Ifelodun to Public Secondary School in order to cut the danger and risk of children from the LCDA crossing roads, highways to schools within the local government,” he said.

He said the council was looking at Ajegunle Primary School at Itire and that at the Badagry Expressway, “We have done the needful, even in our recently concluded executive meeting we decided on how we can convert one of them into a secondary school, because we don’t have public secondary school within Ifelodun local council. 

“The only one we have is Gaskia but  the people that benefited from it are Badia, Ijora, so the chairman has been working tirelessly in making sure that one of these buildings is being converted to secondary school to reduce the kilometers our children cover going to school.”
