Beyioku Medinah Adegbite

Acting Head of Department: Culture & Heritage

I am eyioku Medinah Adegbite, a proud Lagosian with a rich heritage. My grandmother is from the àwórì of Lagos State, and my mother is a princess from the Royal family of Morolugbe of Ota, descended from the Olota of Ota. I am also a stepdaughter of the late Oba of Lagos. On my father's side, we are from the Oluwa Abdulrasheed Beyioku family at Pike Street, Lafiaji Area of Lagos Island, with ancestral ties to the Oluwa of Isalẹ Ẹkọ and the Bajulaye's family. I attended Edward Blyden Primary School and Wahab Folawiyo Senior High School, where I obtained my First School Leaving Certificate and SSCE, respectively. I studied Mass Communication and History at Bayero University, Kano, and also completed a diploma program at the College of Arabia and Islamic Legal Studies (Kwara Cails). Additionally, I hold a B.A(Ed) degree in English Language from the University of Abuja. As an educationist and entrepreneur, I am driven to make a positive impact in both fields. With extensive experience in both teaching and managerial roles, I am also the CEO of MED's Kitchen Utensils, Adam's Farm, and Al-Medinah Academy. My objective is to work with a dedicated team to develop new ideas, contribute to the organization's vision, and achieve its goals through hard work, integrity, and honesty. I am deeply passionate about promoting the rich cultural and heritage aspects of indigenous Lagosians. I am a mother to 3 beautiful kids.
