The administration of Governor Seyi Makinde has revealed that it would construct five new Model schools across the three senatorial districts, saying this is in line with the 2018 intervention project in conjunction with Federal Government-Universal Basic Education Board.

He added that the projects would be awarded to qualified contractors among the 76 applicants who applied for the pre-qualification exercise.

Dr. Adeniran affirmed that the present administration would ensure equity, fairness and objectivity in the award of these contracts. 

“The anomalies observed in the award of contracts by the last administration through awards of 64 and 72 projects to a single contractor is a thing of the past, as our administration is guided by fairness, equity, transparency and accountability”, he said.

He commended Governor Seyi Makinde for his bid to enhance education delivery and access to basic education in the state.

Dr. Adeniran noted that this is made manifest through the Governor’s immediate intervention in the education sector through budgetary increment of the sector.
