In its third edition, Oba Ayangburen and the Bee continues to push the envelope with the launch of the Oba Ayangburen and the Bee Advocates of Education Awards. This new initiative seeks to honour individuals and organisations that have made significant contributions to advancing education in Lagos State.
“As part of our commitment to elevating the project, we are introducing this award to recognise those driving educational development in the state”, said Project Coordinator, Miss Taiwo Otesanya. The awards will feature 10 recipients, with two selected from each of Lagos’ five geopolitical zones under the IBILE Forum.
The spelling competition, which has become a staple in Lagos’ educational calendar since 2022, continues to offer primary school pupils a platform to sharpen their spelling and language skills in a fun, competitive environment. This year’s contest features over 2,000 participants from private and public schools, sponsored by various local leaders, organisations, and brands.
Scheduled for its grand finale on November 27, 2024, the event will take place at Ikorodu Town Ultramodern Hall and will feature 30 finalists competing for exciting prizes, including cash, scholarships, and corporate endorsements.
Corporate partners like BIC, Colgate, Kingsfield Schools, and Beloxxi Biscuits are among those confirmed for this year’s edition, with talks underway for further support from Justrite Supermarkets and Lagos State House of Assembly.
