Lagos To Establish Multi-campus University Of Medicine In Badagry


Tertiary education commissioner Tolani Sule says Lagos will establish a multi-campus university of medicine in Badagry to enhance development in the ancient town.

Mr Sule disclosed this during the inauguration of the newly remodelled Badagry Town Hall at a valedictory event for the outgoing chairman of the council, Olusegun Onilude.

Mr Sule said the university would bring greater prospects and employment opportunities to the town.

“This will create employment opportunities for all and sundry in the town. Also, the general hospital in the town will be upgraded to a teaching hospital,” he said.

The commissioner commended the council chairman for providing infrastructural development for the town.

“I am happy we are inaugurating this ultra-modern town hall project today. This is not only for Badagry local government, it also cut across the two Local Council Development Areas.

“I want every one of us in Lagos to know that Badagry remains a key factor and symbol in the state. Badagry is highly recognised all over the world, and for this reason, whoever will represent Badagry is carrying a huge burden.

“God has his way of rewarding his own people. Onilude, God will reward you,” he said.

Mr Sule described the outgoing chairman as a pure professional with a calm mien, who is diligent and upright.

“Onilude stood out among the twenty education secretaries while he was the Badagry education secretary before becoming the chairman,” he said.

The commissioner urged the people of Badagry to continue to support the party.
