Charterhouse: Inside Lagos primary school that charges N42m as school fees

The architecture, furnishing and infrastructure in the Charterhouse, a Lagos school which charges N42m per pupil annually, is breathtaking.

The school has an expansive playground, state-of-the-art classrooms, sport facilities, library, dining, gym, clinics and other facilities.

For the presidential candidate of the Africa Action Congress (AAC) in the 2023 election, Omoyele Sowore, the people paying for their kids to attend the Charterhouse school are the same people building substandard school classrooms across Nigeria.

He said: “What should not be lost on Nigerians is that these classrooms ought to be donning our public schools as the sixth largest oil-producing country in the world.

“The outrage should actually be against the Nigerian political class that ruined public education institutions and diverted the funds from there to send their own kids to expensive private schools and also build themselves mansions that are swankier than the classrooms you see here.”
