The commissioner for Education,
Mrs Olayinka Oladunjoye has hosted
all winners of the 2013 BRF Quiz competition recently held at the Blue
Roof, LTV Complex, Agidingbi, Ikeja, Lagos. The event took place at the
Conference Hall of the Ministry of Education on 17th, July, 2013.
Mrs. Oladunjoye congratulated and thanked the children for performing
excellently and asked them to continue to be good ambassadors of the State. In
her own words, she said, “We are proud of you, the future is before you, and we
are only facilitating the future for you. For selfish reasons, we are going to
take care of you today so that tomorrow you will be there for us as well as
being useful to yourselves. Thank you very much, congratulations.”
To show her appreciation, the Commissioner and the Permanent Secretary,
Ministry of Education, Mrs. Folushade Omolara Erogbogbo donated laptops and
Androids to the winners in the various categories.
Mrs Oladunjoye also used the occasion to present Award Plaques donated
by Solution Media to 20 Outstanding Teachers from the Six Education Districts
across the state who were selected for producing students who were outstanding
in various competitions within the year.
She congratulated the teachers, asserting that teaching is indeed a
noble profession and that without them, there can be no school. She thanked
them for their diligence and hardworking spirit saying that academic
performance of the pupils is getting better and encouraged them to do more.
While thanking Solution Media for deeming it fit to intervene, she urged
them to do more in the area of assistance because the Government cannot do it
all alone.
In the same vein, the Commissioner received International School, Lagos
(ISL)winners and representatives of Lagos State in this year’s edition of
Nestle/ Milo Secondary Schools Basketball National Championship, who came to
present their trophies. Also in that team was Boluwatife Olaniran who was voted
the most valuable player in the entire tournament.
Mrs Oladunjoye congratulated them for doing the state proud despite the
various challenges earlier faced. She also commended the coach for his discipline,
diligence and hardwork.
