He added, “Before then, I shall spend some time at Rugby School England, absorbing its ‘Whole Person Whole Point’ philosophy and its global approach to teaching and learning.”

Gareth Parker-Jones, headmaster of Rugby School (UK), also expressed excitement over the September date for the Rugby School Nigeria.
