He stated this while making his remarks on the activities that has been happening nation wide as part of the events of this year celebration noting that children must be well protected, nutured and properly groomed if the society must be fit to live in.
In his words: “we were at one time all children and children that we see are the greatest gift of nature. Speaking further, he lamented on how the irresponsibility of many parents have dashed the future of many children and pleaded for a new leaf among parents, couple and guardians.
“The future of the society largely depends on how the children are raise and if we dream of a fit society in the future, parents and guardians must invest well into the moral upbringing as well education of children. There is no point in giving birth to more than you can train and we must condemn Child abuse, trafficking and labour at all time.”
He then congratulated parents and children worldwide, particularly those of Ojoku and Enjema extraction that makes up Ankpa 2 constituency and prayed for long life to experience many more to come.
