Commissioner for Education, Mrs. Olayinka Oladunjoye, who received the donation on behalf of the State Government appreciated the laudable gesture of the MTN Foundation noting that it was just one of the many that MTN Foundation has done for the State.


She implored the students and teachers to make judicious use of the furniture and ensure that they are not damaged just as she also appreciated the facilitator of the gesture from MTN, Mr. Babajimi Benson, an indigene of Ikorodu, and prayed that God gives him the enablement to bring more corporate assistance to the state.

Oladunjoye noted that government cannot do it alone hence it needs the assistance of corporate organizations as well as individuals who are endowed with the means.

Responding, the Education Portfolio Manager of MTN Foundation, Mr. Victor Orie-Ononogbu, pledged the willingness of MTN Foundation to do more, adding that the gesture is just one of many projects being executed in support of Lagos State Government.
