Lagos Approves E-Lecture Portals For State-Owned Tertiary Institutions

 

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has approved special e-portals that will allow Lagos State tertiary institutions to commence online lectures as part of measures to reduce the impact of Coronavirus on education.

The seven schools that will benefit from the initiative are Lagos State University (LASU), Lagos State Polytechnic, Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education, Michael Otedola College of Primary Education, Lagos State University College of Medicine (LASUCOM), Lagos College of Health Technology and Lagos State College of Nursing and Midwifery.

Governor Sanwo-Olu approved the virtual classes to ensure physical distancing among students and their lecturers. The move will also help in the maintenance of the State’s tertiary academic calendar despite the COVID-19 pandemic.

All students should maximize the unique opportunity to keep themselves engaged while the lockdown arising from the pandemic lasts.

Our special thanks must go to Mr. Governor for this approval and for making Lagos the pacesetter among 21st-century knowledge-driven societies.

Special Adviser to the Governor on Education
