Residents in Oko-Abe, Ilege and Owu-Ikosi communities in Epe have commended the member of the House of Representatives, Wale Raji, for aiding the construction of three new secondary schools in the area.
The inhabitants in the area disclosed that the educational infrastructure is a significant milestone that will enhance quality education as the students will no longer need to go out of the community to attend schools.
Echonews understands that the schools, each consisting of 12 classrooms, come fully equipped with furniture, toilet facilities and solar-powered boreholes to provide sustainable water supply.
Community stakeholders described the development as a significant milestone that will expand access to education, improve literacy levels and create opportunities for children to acquire foundational knowledge and skills.
According to residents, the schools are expected to transform the social and economic landscape of the communities by fostering a culture of education, reducing school dropouts and empowering future generations.
A statement by the Epe People’s Opinion Poll Platform, lauded the lawmaker’s consistent interventions in education and infrastructure, noting that his efforts have left an indelible mark on the constituency.
“Epe Division will never forget Hon. Raji for these innovations facilitated to our constituency during his tenure,” part of the statement reads.
“Hon. Raji’s initiative is widely seen as part of a broader drive to address the educational needs of underserved areas, reinforcing the role of education in breaking the cycle of poverty and driving community development.”
