The incident was reported to have happened at Odomola Junior Secondary School, Epe. The Ministry has recalled the principal, who will be asked to explain the incident. The Lagos State Government, the Ministry of Education and all its agencies will never instruct any school principal, personnel or teacher to act in such a manner. The Commissioner for Education, Mrs Folasade Adefisayo, reassures the public that the matter will be dealt with within the scope of our strict regulations as the reason for sending home the student is unacceptable - if true. Mrs Adefisayo also hinted that another school principal at Odonguyan who was caught on camera, as shared on social media, promoting her political choice to the students has been subjected to appropriate disciplinary measures. The Ministry promotes and runs a public school system devoid of politics and political insinuations. A thorough investigation of the matter will be carried out and anyone found culpable will be subjected to disciplinary measures as laid down in the civil service rules.

TINUBU @71: WHY PRESIDENT-ELECT IS GOD’S GIFT TO NIGERIA – OBASA ®™√ INN Nigeria © img 20230330 wa00028587412206409722933 Nigeria's President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is one of God's gifts to Nigeria, the most populous black nation on earth, Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa has said. Dr Obasa said this in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Eromosele Ebhomele, congratulating Tinubu who clocked 71 on Wednesday, March 29, 2023. The Speaker said Tinubu, a puzzle too hard to crack', equates with great men around the world whose stories show great passion and undying love for their countries and citizens. According to him, the recent presidential election won by Asiwaju Tinubu is icing on the cake for the President-elect, who has never shied away from being of service to God and humanity. The Speaker recalled the sacrifice Tinubu made to take Nigeria back from the military and entrench democracy in the country, noting how difficult it is to find individuals with such a level of patriotism. "For a man, whose thought at all times is about salvaging the country from economic and social bondage, victory at the recent polls came at the right time. "There is no way Nigeria's political story can be written without Asiwaju featuring prominently as a result of the positive roles he played before the current democratic dispensation and up till this moment. "We believe that Almighty Allah has a reason for giving him to us in Nigeria, especially at this time of the nation's journey. We do not doubt his capacity to deliver. He has done it before. "With a birthday that comes exactly two months to his oath-taking as President of Nigeria, it is not out of place to say Asiwaju is a blessing to us, one sent to put things right and lay the foundation upon which modern Nigeria would be built. "On behalf of my family, members, staff and management of the Lagos State House of Assembly, I congratulate our dear Asiwaju on his 71st birthday and pray that Allah continues to favour him with vitality, good health and wisdom to navigate our country out of the woods, amin," Obasa prayed.

TINUBU AT 71: ASIWAJU IS ALLAH’S CHOSEN, HE IS A SPECIAL BEING – SHEIKH YAHYA ASHAOLA ®™√ INN Nigeria © 78657hjkoooiio2544337968922659084 Spiritual Leader, His Eminence, Sheikh Yahya Ashaola (As-Samadaani), Chief Imam of Oriwu Central Mosque of Ikorodu has referred to Nigeria's President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as a special being chosen by Allah to lead the current generation. In a sermon given to Muslim faithfuls on Wednesday, 29th of March 2023, marking the 71st birthday of Bola Tinubu, the chief Imam exhorted Nigerians to pray for the President-Elect, for Allah to bestow on him the ample disposition to oversee the nation. The liturgy was delivered after a special prayer and Thanksgiving session were held in the mosque dedicating Tinubu's birthday. Sheikh Ashaola, in his words, "Tinubu is the epitome of Intellectual capacity, a human resource developer and an economic stimulant, equipped for this time to rescue the shattered dreams of Nigerians". Urging the Muslim communities to put him (Tinubu) in their devotions at all times, the chief Imam said he can see the special work of Allah in the life of the incoming president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Underscoring another reason for brethren to beseech for Tinubu, Sheikh Ashaola said winning the 2023 presidential election has hoisted Bola Tinubu into a stature that even some well-respected political figures didn't attain. He explained, "The Late Obafemi Awolowo was considered the best President we never had. He was the head of the Yorubas, but he never permeated the North and East". "Today, Asiwaju has accomplished that!". "He's the most successful politician in Nigeria as we speak". "Asiwaju also suffered for the Democracy we enjoy today, he was tortured and humiliated, but his sense of focus and divine direction kept him moving to where he is now" Sheikh Ashaola added Crediting Tinubu's intellectual strength, Sheikh Ashaola asserted that the President-Elect is known to assemble the best brains to achieve sufficient results, narrating that he exemplified the same act during his first 6 months in office as Governor of Lagos State back in 1999. Subsequently, lecturing attendees, Imam Ojifinni Abdul-Ganiu, the Mufasir of Ramadan 1444/23 in Ikorodu, illustrated that it takes an extraordinary leader to discard his birthday celebration to engage more in service to humanity. Imam Ojifinni stated that the Yoruba population should emulate Bola Tinubu's life ethics, and ensure to give his incoming administration the peace it deserves. "No Yoruba group or body should be brainwashed or influenced to cause havoc on Asiwaju's presidential tenure, because the truth is, his effective performance at Aso Rock will open more doors to Yoruba leaders in the future, given them opportunities to also become president". "We must be careful not to allow people to use us to generate chaos and anarchy towards Asiwaju's tenure, it is the only way we can show him our profound support" Imam Ojifinni asserted On the backdrop of his 71st birthday, President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu directed that special prayers and thanksgiving service be held on March 29, 2023, instead of his annual birthday colloquium. The special prayers were also held in Lagos and other parts of the country, simultaneously.
