COVID 19 & RAUF AREGBESOLA , THE MAN THAT SAW TOMORROW

in line with the millennium development goals timelines and the need for developing nations to use more than orthodox initiatives to bridge the huge learning gap.
The State of Osun in the year 2013, under Ogbeni RAUF ADESOJI AREGBESOLA leadership through its Opón Ìmò Technology Enhanced Learning System (OTELS), developed a learning tool that revolutionize learning, the tool was called TABLET OF KNOWLEDGE the OPÓN ÌMÒ. { An Android Tablet }.

OPÓN ÌMÒ content includes, 56 subjects, Virtual class, 10 year past questions of WASCE and Cultural understanding of Yoruba culture and her belief. Endorsed by UNESCO & eventually WAEC in 2017. Unfortunately then, Africa as a Continent did not see what he saw !

Today amidst COVID 19 pandemic pandemonium, Africa nay the world are preaching & reverting to Virtual world such as teleconferencing, E- learning, Virtual meeting and all that needs to do with Information Technology being the dictate of the moment and most importantly as a tool to teach our out of school pupils in the face of Covid 19 shut down !

Had we known in time and follow his dictates back then, the world would have been better for it today !
