On the occasion of Teachers’ Day, I have great pleasure to extend my greetings and felicitations to Teachers in Kosofe Local Government, and throughout the State.
Teachers’ Day is an occasion on which we recognise the dedicated services of the Teachers in our Nation, who are continuously engaged in building and strengthening the intellectual and ethical foundations of our children.
Teaching is one of the most regarded professions in the society and is respected as next to God. Every successful person remembers with joy and pride the elementary school days and their teachers helped in moulding and shaping them from cradle.
Teaching is not just another profession but a divine responsibility to guide and enlighten, especially as the influences and experiences teachers share with their students will remain with them for lifetime. By teaching, they also lay the foundation and the building blocks of the society. This is a responsibility of great significance because on this depends how our present and future generations will thrive.
I convey my good wishes to the entire teaching community and express gratitude on behalf of the people of Kosofe for their lifetime of dedication and commitment to the great cause of educating our populace.
Signed:
Barrister (Hon.) Moyosore Ogunlewe
