Academic activities at the school, which will be known as Oduduwa University International Secondary School and located in Egbeda, a Lagos suburb, will begin in October.
The Acting Principal of the institution, Mrs Funke-Williams Oladele, said teaching and learning facilities have been provided by the school management.
Conducting our reporter round the school, she said the management has decided to put in place world-class educational facilities to aid learning.
Mrs Oladele said the management had taken into consideration many factors which include, the mission of the new school, the benevolence of the institution’s proprietor, the economic downturn in the Nigeria and above all, the willingness of the school proprietor, Chief R. A. Adedoyin to foster functional and accessible secondary school education in Nigeria
On why the school was established in Lagos instead of the university’s campus, Dr Adedoyin said the decision was informed by his intention to make the school international.
“Besides, Lagos by virtue of its global popularity will appropriately serve the purpose of easily projecting the school outside the shores of Nigeria, “ he added.
He, however, stated that the Ipetumodu-Ife Campus of Oduduwa University International Secondary School will soon take off as well so as to cater for the educational needs of OUI staff children and wards including other people who may wish to enrol their kids in the school.
