Peter Obi Advises Students To Focus On Education As Weapon Of Liberation

LAGOS MARCH 15TH (NEWSRANGERS)-The former Governor of Anambra State, Mr. Peter Obi, has advised Nigerian students to focus on their education, as that is the greatest weapon to liberate people and society from ignorance, slavery and prepare them for competition in the world.
He gave the advice while celebrating “My Freedom Day”, with students of Girls Secondary School, Agulu, Anambra State, and Christ the King College, Ijebu Ode, Ondo State.
In his separate addresses to both schools, Obi ascribed anti-social and grievous ills taking place in the society today as borne out of lack of functional education that would have taught those engaging in such that it is suicidal destroying one’s society.
The former Governor called on the students to always be of good behaviour and to choose reputable men with track record of achievements and decency in both public and private lives as role models.
He also requested them to remember the abducted Chibok and Dapchi school girls in their prayers,
The high point of both visits was the presentation of 1 million Naira cheque each to the two schools to support them in their infrastructural improvement.
“My Freedom Day”, celebrated yearly on the 14th of March, is a CNN creation to sensitise students on the importance of education as a veritable vehicle to fight slavery.
