Nigeria’s Greatest Resources Are Her Youths, Not Petroleum – US Ambassador by Johnnyessence(m): 9:10am On Nov 05, 2018 |
The United States Ambassador to Nigeria , Mr William Symington, has said that the country ’s greatest resources are the youths and not petroleum . Symington said this on Sunday during his visit to Makoko community . While addressing some of the pupils of Adekunle Anglican Primary School, Makoko, Symington said , “If you have oil and you don’t have people , you have nothing . The most important resources of Nigeria are her youths . The reason the world cares about Nigeria is because of the youths of the country ,” he said . The US Ambassador urged the pupils to be selfless in their quest to learn , stressing that what they learn would be used to develop the country . “You are not just learning for yourself ; you are learning for all of us . One of you will discover a cure for a disease . Another person will find a way to encourage farmers and herders to live in peace. “One of you will take a picture and that picture would be worth more than a million words . Some of you will become great authors and you will take people to places where they have never been ,” he said . Symington also commended the leaders of the community for allowing their children to attend school , saying that Nigeria would benefit in the long run if every citizen could read and write . https://punchng.com/nigerias-greatest-resources-are-her-youths-not-petroleum-us-ambassador/ 1 Like |
