Late Dr. Sheila Solarin - A Great Pillar in the Nations's Educational System

Over the last few days, only few events have grabbed more headlines more than the unexpected demise of Mrs. Sheila Solarin, famous educationist and widow of the late Dr. Tai Solarin, foremost human rights activist, and founder of the Mayflower Schools, Ikenne, Ogun State. The news took a prominent position in the Nigerian media. Mrs. Solarin, a Briton, who was known for her immense contribution to the country's education sector, passed on, last Sunday, leaving behind a huge community of mourners and sympathizers who have continued to spill emotions in flowing quantities. She was aged 88. Until her passage last week, the grandmother was bubbling with life and beaming with passion for what she had been known for -- imparting knowledge on younger generations of Nigerians. The famous Mayflower Schools, one of the most respected secondary schools in Africa, are a landmark educational group that would continue to testify to the late principal's priceless contributions to national development as far as molding and nurturing individuals is concerned. She joined him to work at the famous Molusi College in Ijebu Igbo and left in September 1955 to assume office as the Principal of Ijebu Igbo Girl's School where she was until 1956 when she and her husband established Mayflower School. Since that time, the school has gone on to produce many prominent and exceptional individuals who have emerged as leading figures in the country and the world today. Solarin was the author of the book, English Grammar and Comprehension, which was first published in 1982 by Macmillan Book Publishers and was until her death a prolific writer who bared her voice on important national debates. She would, indeed, be sorely missed by all. Want the latest Nigerian News? Subscribe to NTA2Lagos by clicking on this link    / @nta2lagos   then on subscribe Powered by NTA 2 Lagos
