"We think it should worry all of us as a society that our children fall pregnant at this rate," said Makondo."It says to us we should, as various stakeholders in education, take a collective responsibility to raise more awareness inside and outside our schools to prevent more learners from [being in] this situation.

This should be everybody's concern."
"If it was more than 20 pupils who fell pregnant it would have raised alarm and came to our attention. Our district offices would have picked it up immediately [because] they meet regularly with school principals." Makondo said.

“We are developing an estate of modern status on 26 acres, at the entry point of Epe overlooking the lagoon. Epe has come a long way in a developmental process in Lagos State. Our aim is to bring people out of the more congested Lagos City to a quiet serene and comfortable zone.
