The Management of a sixth form university preparatory college, Westerfield College, has inaugurated a new campus on Victoria Island, Lagos. Its Founder, Michael Dosunmu, said the move was to impact more students.
Speaking at the ceremony on Sunday, Dosunmu said that the new facility would give the management a far bigger room to engage and interact with a wider pool of students.
“The vision of the school is to impact the child who will in turn impact his world and there is a limit to how many students we can impact in a smaller facility”
“That obviously informed the need to set up this facility and that is what we intend to achieve, which is to create a bigger room to be able to impact more students than we have”
“Also, in this way of course, we are contributing our quota to the growth and development of Nigeria ” he said.
Dosunmu described Nigeria’s educational sector as a captive market, saying that investors were only interested in people that had the knowledge, experience and skills to deliver.
He said this understanding has helped in attracting quality investors and partners for the 11 years the college had been in existence.
He, however, urged the government to create an enabling environment that would attract investors to the country.
Dosunmu said that the school, which was founded in 2010, had helped about 2,000 students to gain admission into several notable universities abroad
