The Vice Chairman and Supervisor for Education and Library Services, Hon. Akintola Falade, also urged the beneficiaries to reciprocate the council’s investment in their education by working hard and striving for excellent results.

Also speaking, the Deputy Leader of the House and Chairman of the Committee on Education and Library Services, Hon. Hassan Kehinde Yakub, urged the students to maximise the opportunity provided by the council and commence their preparations for the examinations early.
