…To hold Southwest 8th quarterly congress
Association of Lagos State Retired Heads of Service and Permanent Secretaries (ALARHOSPS) is set to hold its 11th anniversary.
The event, which runs from Wednesday 16th October to Tuesday 22nd October 2024, will include Old People’s Home and an official presentation of the renovated (18) toilet facilities at Ebute Elefun Senior Secondary School, Lagos Island.
As revealed by its Publicity Secretary, Sir Olusina Thorpe in a press release made available to journalists, this year’s celebration will be in grand style.
While noting that “the association identifies areas of need, especially in the education and health sectors as part of giving back to society, Olúṣínà recalled that, in the last two years, ALARHOSPS has rehabilitated the Assembly Hall of Epe Grammar School as well as the first Primary School in Nigeria – St Thomas, Anglican Primary School in Badagry amongst many others.
According to the President of ALARHOSPS, Otunba Nurudeen Ojora-Adejiyan, the newly renovated toilets at Ebute Elefun were in bad shape before the intervention.
He said: “While it was observed that the school has a reasonable supply of water, reticulation into both the staff and students toilets had ceased. This adversely affected the functionalities of the toilets. Hence, our swift intervention”.
Ojora-Adejiyan noted that the main essence of the intervention is to improve sanitation and hygiene in the school complex.
He listed the scope of work done to include the removal and replacement of the existing broken, faded and loose floor tiles, and the replacement of the existing sanitary wares with associated plumbing works, including the repainting of the entire units.
The President revealed that other activities lined up for the celebration of the Association’s 11th anniversary, which runs from Wednesday 16th October to Tuesday 22nd October 2024, include novelty matches, a walk for fitness/ health talk, and donation to Old People’s home.
Annually, the association identifies areas of need, especially in the education and health sectors as part of giving back to society.
Recall that, in the last two years, ALARHOSPS has rehabilitated the Assembly Hall of Epe Grammar School as well as the first Primary School in Nigeria – St Thomas, Anglican Primary School in Badagry amongst many others.
In a related development, the Association will be hosting the 8th Quarterly Meeting of the Southwest Association of Retired Heads of Service and Permanent Secretaries with the theme – The SouthWest Zone – the Need for Collaboration, Integration and Cooperation.
The meeting, drawing delegates from the six southwestern States, is to chart a new course for strategic partnerships, synergy, and harmonisation for the future development of the zone.
