The Lagos State Governor Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu has approved special e-portals that will allow Lagos State tertiary institutions to commence online lectures as part of measures to reduce the impact of Coronavirus lockdown on education.
The seven state owned-schools to benefit from the initiative are: Lagos State University (LASU), Lagos State University College of Medicine (LASUCOM), Lagos State Polytechnic, Lagos College of Health Technology, Lagos State College of Nursing and Midwifery, Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education and Michael Otedola College of Primary Education,.
The State government approved the virtual classes to ensure physical distancing among students and their lecturers. The virtual classes will also help in the maintenance of the State’s tertiary academic calendar despite the COVID-19 pandemic.
All students are expected to maximise the unique opportunity to keep themselves engaged while the lockdown arising from the pandemic lasts.
