Rabiatu
Thompson is a public primary school in the heart of Surulere. Way back
in 2011, Etisalat Nigeria demolished the school’s ‘vomitable’ (just
coined that word; it means: dreadful!) structure, re-designed and
re-constructed it. Not kidding! Before you say Linda has come again,
check out the before and after photos *pouting*.
Etisalat
also inspected every stage of the construction work until the company
was satisfied with the new environment which is more suitable for a
child to learn in.
Etisalat,
the fastest growing telecommunications company in Nigeria, made a
decision three years back to make education one of its priority areas,
and created the Adopt-a-School initiative as part of its Corporate
Social Responsibility CSR to Nigeria.

Fashola, the Lagos State governor, was represented at the
re-commissioning of the school by the Honourable Commissioner for
Education, Mrs. Olayinka Oladunjoye. The CEO, Etisalat Nigeria, Mr.
Steven Evans was there also along with Board Member of the company, Mr.
Kayode Sofola.
Etisalat
Nigeria has now adopted three schools, namely: Akande Dahunsi Memorial
High School, Ikoyi; Edward Blyden Primary School, Lagos Island and
Rabiatu Thompson Memorial Primary School, Surulere. All these schools
are in Lagos and all have been adopted for life.
