The education of children has been described as the key to the
future of Nigeria.
Making the assertion in Ota, Ogun State, during the 3rd valedictory
session of De Dynamic College, a former Executive Secretary of the
National Universities Commission, Prof. Peter Okebukola, who was
represented at the occassion by the National Programme Officer
for the Centre for National Security, Olusegun Obasanjo
Presidential Library, Mr. Damian Oyibo, said with the youthful
population of Nigeria and Africa, education security was necessary
to drive the engine of societal growth.
The former NUC scribe also pointed that to ensure that every child
is educationally secured; Nigeria needs to improve its economy by
being a producer rather than a consumer.
According to him, no developing country removes its subsidy on
education and still thrives. He said there should be a form of
support system so that those who are intelligent but cannot afford
to go to school will still be able to do so.
“There should be an education tax, whereby a percentage of
education is voted into education. If these are adhered to, there
will be a balance between public and private schools. If the
system continues like this, then we are sure that the money that
goes into education goes into education” he said.
Executive Director of the school, Alhaja Aramide Bello, said that
the graduates are now prepared to take up future challenges after
their six-year grooming experience at the college.
