The James Hope College (JHC) has announced the acquisition of the American International School Lagos (AISL) Lekki Campus facility to establish James Hope College in Lagos. This was disclosed at the signing ceremony held yesterday at the Civic Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos.

The event had the Governor of Lagos, His Excellency Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the United States Ambassador ably represented by Carol Cox, the Chairman of AISL Board, Ali Safieddine and other prominent persons in attendance.

While giving his speech at the event, the Founder/Chairman of James Hope College, Mr. Jim Ovia stated that the College would continue to offer full scholarship based on merit, to 40% of all the students that would be admitted into the school.

James Hope College, a co-educational initiative of the Jim Ovia Foundation, offers a combination of British and Nigerian curricula. James Hope College is a Cambridge Associate School, a member of Council of British International Schools (COBIS) and Association of British Schools Overseas (AoBSO). JHC is in partnership with Microsoft Imagine Academy and GL Education. JHC is accredited by Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE), Pearson Edexcel Examinations, and British Schools Overseas (BSO.

With the acquisition of this property, James Hope College is set to replicate in Lagos the outstanding academic performance it is known for. More importantly, the offer of full scholarship to 40% of the students on merit ensures that the school’s equal opportunity model of academic excellence is extended to all students regardless of their state of origin.

James Hope College Lagos will open its doors to students in September 2020.

Btw I heard Seun is giving out money to those who make FTC.

This is a good development

Full scholarship to 40% of the students is alot

Hopefully we will see this being replicated in our supposed missionary universities. Universities built with members money, and yet the majority of members cannot afford to enrol their children. Due to Outrageous school fees, what a joke!

He has explicitly said during campaign that Lagos state was going to be private sector driven.

Secondly, if you know the land mass bn exchanged here, you would know why he is interested

I never thought that school could be sold.

I guess everything has a price tag and can be sold for the right price.

So you just had to drag private universities and churches into this?
You guys can never be satisfied...never!

Really?

Is that the way the Mayor of London or New York attend the acquisition of private schools in the state.

Unless you can explain what interest the State of Lagos has in this private event, you do well to not defend him.

What has Land mass got to do with acquisitions of private entities- unless Lagos state owns part of the land; which I very much doubt.

Like someone said earlier - the guy is probably the most incompetent Nd clueless Lagos state Governor in this democratic era.
I wish him well all the same.

Correction please! JHC only acquired AISL' s old campus facility and not AISL as a school. AISL has a newly completed campus facility know as the permanent campus.
