The Ogun State Government has announced the construction of a ₦1 billion Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered digital classroom complex at Remo Secondary School (RSS) in Sagamu.
Governor Dapo Abiodun made the announcement of the project in the early hours of Monday, February 9, during the 80th anniversary celebration of the institution, to modernize the educational infrastructure of the state.
According to the Governor, Remo Secondary School, is a heritage institution, and one of the designated flagship schools of the state.
The state aims to integrate advanced technology into the secondary school curriculum, by equipping students from the global knowledge-based economy.
The government has allocated N1 billion for a 900-seater digital classroom complex, which includes an ultra-modern resource center and a fully equipped robotics laboratory.
Governor Abiodun pledged an additional ₦100 million to the institution, with an initial ₦50 million installment scheduled for release next week.
“We are not just celebrating a school; we are celebrating a living institution… This ultra-modern facility is a major investment aimed at equipping students for the demands of the 21st-century knowledge economy. I will ensure that before I leave the office, we begin and complete at least one of the projects mentioned” – Governor Abiodun
The state plans to integrate these AI-powered environments into the “OgunLearn” digital platform in future to standardize technology-driven instruction across other flagship schools.
