Today, I visited the site of the recent bomb scare incident in Mushin alongside Chief Tajudeen Faronbi, the Baale of Oke Mushin to conduct an on-the-spot inspection and assess the situation firsthand.

During the visit, I met with the Chairman and former Chairman of the Wey Street Leather Association, who provided a detailed account of the incident and its impact on the community. I commiserated with them over the unfortunate occurrence and engaged in discussions on practical measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.

I also reassured them that the Lagos State Government remains open to recommendations and collaborative efforts aimed at enhancing the safety and security of our people. I emphasized that safeguarding our communities is not the responsibility of one individual or institution alone, but a collective duty that requires the active participation of all stakeholders.

Together, we must remain vigilant, united, and committed to building a safer Mushin and a safer Lagos for everyone.

The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.. Michelangelo

If our young people are not better than us, then we failed.

It's that simple!

I am honoured to be at the Education World Forum 2026 as a Full Delegate, representing Lagos State and Nigeria.

This is the largest gathering of education and skills ministers globally, and the theme, “Educating for a shared future: Peace, planet, purpose and pathways", could not be more urgent or inspiring.

I am deeply grateful to His Excellency, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, for the approval and confidence to be part of this historic forum.

Your unwavering commitment to transforming basic education in Lagos continues to open global doors for our state.

Our Nigerian Delegation is ably led by Dr. Tunji Alausa, and I am proud to learn, share, and bring back insights that will strengthen the work we do at the Universal Basic Education Board, Lagos.

Let us keep building a future where every child, everywhere, has access to quality education.

Focusing on the first E in our THEMES+ agenda, which is Education and Technology, the Tolu Schools Complex in Ajegunle sits on nearly 12 hectares and serves about 20,000 students across 36 schools, both primary and secondary.

Before the upgrade, many of the buildings were in poor condition. Today, the entire complex has been rebuilt and expanded, marking its most significant transformation since it was established over 40 years ago.

New classroom blocks have been added to reduce overcrowding. The facilities now include a football pitch, sports courts, a health centre, a fire station, and essential services like solar power and improved water systems.

There is also a clear focus on inclusion. Dedicated buildings for students with disabilities have been introduced, along with lifts to make movement easier within the complex. A vocational centre is now in place, offering training in practical skills such as tailoring, plumbing, and masonry.

With an ICT hub and a central laboratory, students are better positioned to engage with science and technology in a more hands-on way.

Overall, the project creates a more supportive and functional learning environment for a densely populated community.
