Sanwo-Olu To Enrol 2 Underage Children Forced To Skip School In Lagos

The governor’s convoy had ran into the two children on his way to an official function on Thursday.

Sanwo-Olu, who was moved by the stories of the two girls, Amarachi Chinedu, 9, and Suwebat Husseini, 12, decided to enrol them in school and sponsor their education. The senior special assistant to the Governor on New Media, Jubril Gawat, who disclosed this on his verified Twitter handle, wrote: Sanwo-Olu “momentarily halted his convoy when he saw two underage girls on an errand for a bean cake vendor during school hours.

Speaking further, Gawat said as a result of interrogation, Sanwo-Olu discovered that though the mother of Amarachi is a teacher, she could not afford the current session’s tuition fees of her child and she would have to miss a school for year because of that. “Suwebat’s mother is the bean cake seller for whom the girls were running an errand. Her parents, who are Jigawa State indigenes, relocated to Lagos months back. Suwebat’s four male siblings were all in school at the time she was stopped on the road by the Governor.
