Tokunbo Wahab has continued to draw gasps and admiration at the grassroots and growing recognition at the upper echelons of power

No doubt, this dude is one of the most hardworking and resourceful in the Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s cabinet.

This is on account of ebullient Barrister Tokunbo Wahab’s several ground-breaking exploits since he assumed office in Sanwo-Olu’s administration as his Special Adviser on Education, despite his portfolio quite averse to his original training as a lawyer.

The very officious Tokunbo recently drew another applause from far and wide when he initiated, spearheaded, and led the committee of management and heads of Lagos State Tertiary institutions to the University of London, for training and re-training on capacity development; an off-shoot of Sanwo-Olu and Tokunbo Wahab’s mutual understanding that education is the best avenue for self, corporate and regional development, thus, by extension, the maiden visit to London in this regard, could be regarded as the first step in the new direction towards greatness for yearning Lagos citizens.

Through this singular effort, Tokunbo Wahab has continued to draw gasps and admiration at the grassroots and growing recognition at the upper echelons of power. According to Lagosians who paid close attention to the visit, Wahab had intended to create a foundation for further growth, and integration with the University of London’s special collection of academic programs was the best way to start achieving this.

Of course, this is no surprise considering that this is what Wahab has always been doing, raising the standard for education in Lagos, Nigeria, and the rest of Africa, just as some of them say that we ain’t seen nothing yet from the bastion of Wahab’s innovative and developmental armory for the educational sector in the state.
