The Head of Service noted that the development aligns with the ISEYA pillar of the Abiodun administration, reaffirming Ogun State’s ambition to remain Nigeria’s education hub.
Mr. Onasanya reiterated that the Prince Dapo Abiodun-led administration remains committed to progressive policies that promote educational development and urged teachers across the state to sustain their dedication to efficient and quality service delivery.
