Buhari Urges Nigerians to Embrace Quality Education

President Muhammadu Buhari has urged Nigerians to embrace quality education.

The president, who disclosed this at the 50th anniversary of Community Secondary School, Daura, in Daura, Katsina State, noted that Nigeria’s socio-economic and political salvation would come from education.

He therefore urged Nigerians to embrace learning as a way of life as his administration would do its best to provide access to quality education.

“My nine years in boarding school and the army shaped my life,” he said.

“I spent nine years in the boarding school where the teachers showered us with love, care and total commitment. They treated you as their own children,” he added.

He commended the current management of the school for maintaining high standards.

Alhaji M.T. Bature, the Sarkin Kudu of Katsina, said the vision of the founding fathers had ensured the success of so many sons of the state.

He noted that graduates of the school had become professors, engineers, doctors and military generals.
