Leo Stan Ekeh Foundation Commissions AI Centres in Two Lagos Schools

The Leo Stan Ekeh Foundation, in collaboration with businesses within the Zinox Group, has commissioned state-of-the-art Artificial Intelligence (AI) Technology Centres at two secondary schools in Gbagada, Lagos State.

The new facilities at Gbagada Senior Grammar School and Lanre Awolokun High School are designed to bring digital learning, AI-enabled tools and modern computing infrastructure directly into the classroom. 

Consumer Experience Is A Top Priority 
Each centre is equipped with Zinox All-in-One desktop computers, large interactive AI-enabled screens, 24-hour renewable energy solutions from iPower and two years of Starlink satellite internet connectivity.

The infrastructure is intended to provide students and teachers with reliable access to digital learning resources beyond the traditional classroom environment. 

Speaking during the commissioning, Zinox Group Chairman Leo Stan Ekeh urged the students to embrace the opportunity created by the new technology centres, stressing the importance of patience, discipline and hard work.

Ekeh also said outstanding students could receive full scholarships and access to world-class technology training, as part of the foundation's wider commitment to developing young Nigerian talent. 

The initiative involves Task Systems, TD Africa, Zinox Technologies and Konga Group, alongside the Leo Stan Ekeh Foundation.

According to the foundation, the Gbagada project forms part of a broader education and technology intervention programme that has now reached 123 projects across Nigeria over the past 38 years. 

Consumer Experience Is A Top Priority
The foundation is also targeting 1,000 academically talented young Nigerians from low-income households for university scholarships and technology training, with some of the first beneficiaries already admitted to study Computer Science and Computer Engineering.

For Ekeh and the foundation, the latest intervention places AI, connectivity and digital skills closer to young Nigerians at an early stage — reflecting a broader push to make technology part of everyday education.
