Ameh gave the assurance in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Lagos.

The chairman spoke against the backdrop of reports by some parents, alleging poor environmental sanitation and unavailable potable water in the college, especially the annex in Victoria Island.

The parents had complained of a water infection that gave rise to fever, resulting in blisters on various parts of the skin of some of the students, specifically those in Junior Secondary School one (JSS1).

He maintained that there was no outbreak of waterborne diseases in the college.

Ameh stated that there was only one source of drinking water that served the entire college community, including the principal and staff, and wondered how the alleged infection could have targeted only the JSS I students.

Speaking further on the development, the chairman stressed that there was no issue of lack of potable water, not with the presence of an industrial borehole provided for the college by the Federal Government.

According to him, the two boreholes that provide water for drinking and washing respectively, always undergo routine maintenance.

He further added that the environment at the annex was equally conducive for teaching and learning to thrive.

“Yes, I got complaints from some JSS1 parents about the ill health of our Kings, and I felt very pained and concerned. These children are our first and foremost priority, our joy, our responsibility and the reason why we are here.

“We can never afford to compromise their education, health, general welfare and other things that concern them. We are to partner government to ensure that they get the best possible.”

On his part, the director/principal of the college, Mr Andrew Agada, noted that since his arrival in 2019, there had never been any incident of water-borne diseases.

He said that the college had always taken issues of water, food and welfare of the boys in both the main campus and the annex, with extreme care.
