BTA FUND DONATES CLASSROOM FURNITURE TO IBEJU-LEKKI SCHOOL

Lagos, Nigeria - Entrepreneur and Investor, Basheer Tosin Ashafa, has successfully facilitated the donation of school furniture, consisting of 100 chairs and tables, to St. John’s R.C.M. School, Aiyeteju town, Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Area, Lagos State.

The donation was made by the Special Committee for the Rehabilitation of Public Schools (SCRPS) in Lagos State, after a series of intervention efforts and requests for support were made by Mr. Ashafa. Furthermore, it also complements Mr. Ashafa’s personal resources which were used to provide an extensive facelift in a three-year structured rehabilitation program. In August 2020, the new look of St. John’s R.C.M. School was commissioned, with members of the public in attendance.

 In a statement by Mr. Ashafa, “We have seen that progress is an action word. An effective collaboration between the government and private organizations and individuals can only lead to progress. We are grateful to the Special Committee and its chairman, Mr. Hakeem Smith, for this support. I equally commend the Lagos State governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, for keeping to his promise that the poor state of infrastructure in public schools, especially those in rural areas, will be addressed.”
