AMILOADED MEDIA HUB NEWS UPDATE
The senatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun East, Engineer Ajibola Israel Famurewa, has described teachers as bedrocks of development and nation building, saying they deserve accolades and encomiums from every stratum of the society, AMILOADED reports.
Famurewa said this in a statement he personally signed to felicitate with the teachers on the 2022 World Teachers Day.
The senatorial candidate said there “is no gainsaying the fact that without teachers, a nation cannot develop given their indisputable role as those who impact knowledge, through precepts,examples and experiences and guide learners through their studies, which are principally directed at getting them to think for themselves.”
He noted that teachers have been chosen as a social agent by the entire society to delegate knowledge to others according to their needs and capabilities.
The former Osun SUBEB Executive Chairman said teachers’ challenges and responsibilities were many and cannot be exhausted because “the teacher is also a motivator, moderator, counsellor and above all a supervisor of learning. Little wonder, the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) has its slogan as ‘If you can write your name, thank your teacher’.”
Famurewa urged stakeholders in the education sector not to relent in according the teachers the necessary support and respect they deserve at all times, saying this will go a long way in encouraging the teachers.
He however felicitated with teachers across the country, especially those in Osun East Senatorial District for witnessing this year’s celebration.
