Corps Member Donates Library to School
At a time Nigerian government is searching for resourceful young talents who would be involved in the business of co-transforming the nation to greater height, a young lady, Olajumoke Olateju, has proved herself relevant by donating a library to a secondary school in Kwara State where she was posted as a 2012 Batch 'A' member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).
The school had been in need of such facility for quite sometime and Vanguard Learning gathered that the authorities never had any inkling that such succour could come through a corps member who, before the end of her service year, brought joy to both students and the staff of the school.
Apart from the library, Jumoke purchased and made school uniforms for the less privileged students, paid PTA levy of not less than six students every term, gave them extra lessons after school hours and paid WAEC and NECO fees for some less privileged students.
She also adopted the mother tongue to teach Mathematics in the school to the amazement of her colleagues and students, inspite of the fact that she schooled abroad and came home for the NYSC programme.
Jumoke was assisted by individuals and corporate bodies who donated immensely to ensure she accomplished her vision. The modern school library was commissioned by the Kwara State Commissioner for Education and Human Capital Development.
Reacting to the gesture, the Principal of the school, Alhaji Toyin Abdullahi, said; "The corps member has confirmed her leadership qualities and benevolence by her numerous kind gestures towards humanity since her assumption of duty at her place of primary assignment."
