Worried by the deteriorating learning condition and dilapidated infrastructure in Baptist Junior Secondary School Obanikoro, Lagos, the Nigerian Insurers Association (NIA) has renovated the School Hall to improve the learning condition of pupils and provide a convivial environment for advancement of knowledge.
A statement by Controller/Head, Human Resource, Administration and Corporate Communications, NIA, Davis Iyasere, said while speaking at the commissioning of the project which was renovated by Association as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility Initiatives on Monday in Lagos, Chairman of Nigerian Insurers Association, Tope Smart, expressed hope that the facility will be put to good use and charged the school authorities and students to maintain the facility so as to encourage other corporate bodies to invest in similar projects in the school.
The Chairman said the Association was moved by the inhuman learning condition in the school which is dotted by dilapidated classrooms, leaking roof and other decrepit facilities and made the intervention to assist the pupils fulfill their academic potentials in a conducive learning environment even as he emphasized the need for a strong maintenance culture in Nigeria to protect the facility from decay.
