Reagan Memorial Baptist Nursery and Primary School Named After Tinubu

Yaba Local Council Development Area (LCDA) has named the Reagan Memorial Baptist Nursery and Primary School after Senator Oluremi Tinubu.

The remodeled school was renamed by the Chairman of the LCDA, Kayode Adejare Omiyale.

According to him, the building being commissioned was a child of circumstance following the initiative of former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, who returned the schools to their original owners.

“Reagan Memorial Baptist Nursery and Primary School belongs to the Baptist mission. It was one of the schools that were returned to the missionaries. Immediately after the transfer, the pupils in this school became something like orphans deprived of any sense of belonging, as they could not lay particular claim to any school as their own.

“Attendance in this school was severely affected as enrolment dwindled. I was the Executive Education Secretary of Mainland Local Government Education Authority when the transfer took place. It was therefore apparent by the time I assumed office as the chairman of the Council in 2017 to resuscitate the school,” he said.
