Lagos State Government has issued a Seven-Day ultimatum to illegal
occupants along government schools’ setbacks to vacate or face prosecution. The
Executive Chairman of Lagos State Universal Basic Education Board, LSUBEB, Dr.
Ganiyu gave the directive during an inspection tour with other members and
management staff of the board to some primary schools in the state.
He warned
that any defaulter caught after the expiration of the directives would be
evicted and prosecuted accordingly, by the state taskforce team.
Sopeyin while
decrying the rate of illegal and unauthorised use of public schools’ setbacks
by traders and artisans described the action as, “environmental nuisance and a
breach of public order.”
He therefore, warned illegal occupants that it was not
going to be business as usual, hence, the state government, through SUBEB was
determined to make the environment of public primary schools more conducive for
qualitative and quantitative education.
He wondered why traders and artisans
should constitute themselves into environmental nuisance without due
consideration to the grave consequences of their actions.
Sopeyin also called on the management of
public schools to avoid wastages
assuring that the inspection exercise would be continuous. The schools visited
include: Gbagada Primary School, Gbagada, Ajidagan Primary School, Gbagada and
Layi Oyekanmi Primary School, Mushin, across the metropolis.
