Education Minister Tunji Alausa at Kings College TBS Lagos
The Minister of Education, Maruf Tunji Alausa, paid an unannounced visit to King?s College, TBS, Lagos on Thursday.
Arriving at the main campus at exactly 7:30 a.m., the minister inspected classrooms and other facilities, noting the untidy environment and power outage in the school.
The Vice Principal, Shittu Y. S., informed Alausa that the school had been without electricity for the past eight months saying, ?The light has been away for the past eight months. The generator worked until it collapsed before the end of the term in December.?
He added that in response to the issue, the school made temporary arrangements, including purchasing generators for classrooms and the dining hall, as well as installing an inverter in the hostel.
Shittu, however, noted that the annex campus for Junior Secondary School students in Victoria Island had regular power supply. (The PUNCH)
