The Permanent Secretary, who was represented by Mr. Yakub Abdulfatai Olayemi, emphasised academic excellence and discipline as integral parts of quality education.

He reaffirmed the Lagos State Government’s commitment to youth development through the T.H.E.M.E.S Plus Agenda, which prioritizes Education, Technology and Innovation. He called on students to remain focused, self-disciplined, and well-behaved to ensure the Government’s investments in education yield positive outcomes.

Represented by Dr. (Mrs.) Mazeedat Erinosho, Ogboye advised students to leverage the College’s conducive learning environment, which features state-of-the-art laboratories, experienced Faculties and a globally relevant curriculum.


Dr. Ogboye cautioned students against any form of misconduct, reminding them that discipline is a hallmark of every successful professional.

Earlier, the Provost of LASCOHET, Professor Raheem Olasupo Akewushola, congratulated the newly admitted students for their success in the competitive entrance examinations. He encouraged the students to remain focused on their studies and diligently complete their academic assignments.


Professor Akewusola reiterated the College's zero-tolerance policy for examination malpractice, cultism, and indecent dressing. He reminded students that professional integrity begins with academic discipline, and uprightness is vital in the Healthcare profession.


He also expressed gratitude to the Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, for his unwavering support and significant investments in the Institution. “These contributions”, he noted, “have positioned LASCOHET as a leading College of Health in Nigeria”.
