Taiwo Awoniyi Embarks on School Reconstruction, Completes New Cottage Hospital In Olla
There seem to be no end to Super Eagles attacker, Taiwo Awoniyi’s desire in giving back to the society after he expressed desire to embark on reconstruction works at the Government Day Secondary school, GDSS, Egbijila, Ilorin,
Following the outcry from hapless community in the area over the shocking state of the school infrastructure, making the place a haven for miscreants.
The Nottingham FC star will be handing over a fully equipped cottage hospital he built from the scratch in Olla, another community in Ifelodun Local Government, Kwara State, to local administrators.
According reports from media handlers of the Nottingham Forest star striker, the commissioning of the health facility will come up on Tuesday.
The Egbejila School project involves complementary re-plastering and refurbishment of the classrooms, complete with steel reinforced doors and windows to debar miscreants from gaining access into the school classes to engage in vices.
The school, despite several outcries to authorities including police, NDLEA and state government officials had, until the renovations began, been a having for local distribution of narcotics like crack, hemp and other illicit hallucinogenic substances.
The school’s authority recently found two cellophane bags (poly-bags) of hemp in one of the classes which was reported to both police and the Ministry of Education with no response coming.
“We have reported series of rape incidents happening in the school; people are routinely mugged and attacked in the vicinity all because the school with its shocking dilapidation got no response from the state government,” explained a grateful parent and member of the school’s PTA.
But a calm Taiwo Awoniyi says that the school’s project has to be expanded.
“I had intended it to be just one or two classes. But what I saw when I visited the place left me completely dumbfounded.
“No child should learn under such condition,” he said.
Aside these projects, the soccer star built a dressing room for his Unicorn Academy, where he was trained as a boy.
At the UITH, he visited sick inmates paying their hospital bills.
Awoniyi attended his secondary education at the GDSS, Egbejila.
