400 level LASU student wins KLCI leadership boot camp grant

 
A 400 Level Biology Education student of the Lagos State University, Veracruz Gbolahan, has won a ₦100,000 KLCI Leadership Bootcamp Grant.
 
The grant was awarded to the undergraduate degree finalist for providing the most innovative idea to solve educational problems in undeserved communities in Nigeria.
 
 
Gbolahan's idea was adjudged the most innovative out of proposals submitted by 25 students from higher institutions in Nigeria in the four-week KLCI virtual boot camp, which took place throughout August, 2020. 
 
His idea was the feasible creation of an offline Edutech application which will make use of the wireless mesh network to teach and serve as resources for students and teachers in underserved communities in Nigeria, and can be implemented during and post Covid-19 pandemic.
