President Muhammadu Buhari Saturday urged Nigerian parents and children to hold onto the ancient truths of integrity, honesty, knowledge and hard work in
“At the twilight of this administration, we are thankful for all the support we have received from parents, government officials, development partners, professionals, and religious leaders in realizing some of our targets, like the school feeding programme, resuscitation of the primary health care system, and protecting our schools by the security agencies.
“As we are aware, raising healthy and promising children is a collective responsibility. In Nigeria, like in most of Africa, the community has a stake in the upbringing of the child. Truly, it takes a village to raise a child. And as the world continues to become smaller with new technology, and the borders on culture and cultural values are steadily getting blurred, we must retain our identity and values.
The President noted that efforts should be geared towards putting building blocks that will sustain unity, peace and prosperity for the sake of the children. “At over eighty years of age, and served the country all my working life, I still believe our children hold the keys to a brighter future for Nigeria, with these three undeniable and unchangeable truths; fear of God is supreme, love for knowledge is elevating and hard work will always pay off.
“Happy Children’s Day, and God bless our children,’’ he said while felicitating with parents, children and guardians.
