OKLA EXPLAINS RATIONALE BEHIND EDUCATION COMMITTEE CONSTITUTION
*Assures Committee's recommendations would be implemented
The lawmaker representing kosofe constituency 1, Hon. Sanni Babatunde Okanlawon has disclosed that the desire to work with solution-driven recommendations towards collaborating and complementing the efforts of the state government in educational development was the major reason behind his constitution of committee on education in Kosofe constituency 1
Hon, Sanni noted that the constitution of the committee became imperative in order for Kosofe constituency 1 to take quick advantage of Lagos state government educational policy which is geared towards provision of qualitative education for the pupils and students in the state.
The lawmaker who is fondly referred to as “Okla” by political admirers said: “the committee on education was a think-thank committee; they are to assist with supportive programme, collaborating with whatever we have on ground in our educational sector,
“The state is doing a lot to fix our schools in our constituency. It is not yet uhuru. We need to have handshakes with the state and private sector. I have an antidote which I think could bring solution but two heads are better than one. That is why I have to come up with think-thank committee headed by Barr. Moyosore Ogunlewe.”
Recall that Hon. Sanni Okanlawon on May 17 this year announced the constitution of five-man committee on education comprising of Barr. Moyosore Ogunlewe, Mr. Ganiyu Oyebanjo, Mr. Funsho Oduntan, Mr. Saheed Olaide and Mr. Adam Yusuf. They were given until June 30 to submit their reports.
But the chairman house committee on commerce, industry and cooperative disclosed to Kosofe Reporters that the committee had not submitted its reports as it had requested for ample time to be able to complete the assignment.
And while expecting the committee to submit its report sooner than later Hon. Sanni however expressed great confidence in the ability of the committee to come up with practicable recommendations.
He averred that the recommendations of the committee would be implemented while it would also assist in the implementation of the recommendations.
The constitution of the committee on education is part of manifold educational interventions the Honourable member of Lagos State house of Assembly have initiated since his assumption of office over a year ago to uplifting the standard and quality of education in his constituency.
Hon. Sanni in his first year in office facilitated the refurbishment of Muslim college Oworoshoki, sunk borehole at Emmanuel High primary school Ojota and he is presently equipping computer laboratory in the same school.
Besides this, he purchased school buses that have been ferrying school pupils from Maryland to Ojota and Ogudu. And has promised to add another one to the fleet that would be commuting between Ifako and Oworonsoki.
