A BRIEF HISTORY OF AWORI COLLEGE COOPERATIVE

In late 1996, a group of newly employed teachers, Mr Ogunsanya, Mr Adesegha Kola, and Mr Ogunyemi Tope began a discussion on how to set up a cooperative society for Awori College Staff. We were initially discouraged by the high rate of failure of school based cooperatives in Lagos state, Awori College inclusive, but Mr Ogunsanya and Mr Ogunyemi were very optimistic that we can make it work if we can avoid the pitfalls of previous cooperative societies.

After months of deliberations we decided to coopt Mr Fadahunsi S.O, the Vice Principal. He was also skeptical but after several meetings eventually agreed to come on board and asked us to brief the Principal, Mrs Dada J.O. The principal, on being briefed asked for time to ruminate over the issue and after a few weeks gave her approval and thus Awori College Cooperative was born and membership was thrown open to the entire staff of the school in early 1997. Mr Ogunsanya became the pioneer Chairman and was assisted by Mr Akinpelu as Vice Chair.
