BREAKING: New Lagos Governor Emerges Amid Surprise

 By Rostrum



A student of Lafiaji Senior High School in Lagos State, Nigeria, Ms Gloria Ajala has graciously won the state's Spelling Bee Competition amid surprises.

Ms Gloria, who was a representative of Lagos Island East LCDA in the competition, has according to the existing tradition, equally emerged as the Governor of Lagos State for one day.

Rostrum correspondent gathered that the day for the swearing-in ceremony would be announced later. She is expected to be sworn in alongside her cabinet members. Her cabinet would constitute the co-competitors, particularly the runner-up winners. And their leadership is meant to last for only 24 hours.

Congratulating the winner after she emerged on Tuesday, 30th October 2018, Deputy Governor of the commercial-rich state, Dr. Idiat Oluranti Adebule said Ms Gloria would be given scholarship by the state government to pursue any course of her choice in any public university in the country.

Ms Gloria, who is reportedly a daughter of a Lagos-based barber, would also be sponsored together with her 'cabinet' to attend a cultural exchange programme in Finland.

The deputy governor also commended the 2018 edition of the Spelling Bee competition, saying it has been highly educative and competitive.

“I am very impressed with the performance of the competitors in the grand finale of the primary and the secondary school categories," she said.

Dr. Adebule, however, noted that the competition has experienced improvement in the areas of presentation and vocabulary development. She attributed the improvement to the various policies and programmes initiated by Governor Akinwunmi Ambode-led administration to encourage learning.

Grace Ikhariale of Tin Can Island Senior High SChool and Oluwatosin Akinbodewa of Iworo Ajido Senior Secondary School finished in second and third positions, respectively.
