The second edition of the Mukhtaar Temitope Tijani (MTT) Back 2 School drive held today 15 – 01 – 2022.
The Back 2 School Drive is an annual initiative to encourage children on Lagos Island to embrace education.

To improve on the feedback from the 2021 program which targeted 300 pupils, Hon Mukhtaar Tijani increased the reach of the 2022 program to cover 500 kids within the ages of 8-12 years old who are also residents of Lagos Island.

This year’s edition distribution is led by Lagos Island East Education Secretary Hon Qudus Abari, Lcda Chairman Hon Muibi Folawiyo , House of Representatives Member , Hon Kayode Akiolu and His counterpart in the assembly Hon Olarenwaju Afini .

MTT implored parents to make use of such initiative to motivate their children back to the classroom while also promising to do more on the rehabilitation of the education system within Lagos Island with different programs as the Back 2 School Drive.

Hon Kayode Akiolu called on parents to increase the value system amongst the kids and make education a core business within the family.

Lagos Island East Education Secretary Alhaji Abari appealed to the children to look up to MTT and his colleagues as role models to motivate and emulate.

While the message was for the students, it also by extension made reference to parents whose responsibility is to ensure that these children are able to uphold their optimistic visions of the future.
