President Bola Tinubu and state governors have celebrated Nigeria’s children, who they described as bearers of the nation’s torch into the future.

They spoke yesterday at events to mark this year’s International Children’s Day celebration.

Tinubu, in a statement by the presidential spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, rejoiced with parents, guardians, and families across the nation, and called for a reinforcement of the family unit as a place where the sacred values of honesty, modesty, hard work and charity are passed down to the shining lights of tomorrow.

Tinubu affirmed that society is a reflection of each family unit as a collective, and urged the preservation of those principles that make it wholesome, nurturing and thriving.

The president stated that his administration is sparing no effort in ensuring that Nigeria’s children have a solid footing for the realisation of their dreams.

With increased investments in education, and the recent overhauling of the entire education system to provide both human and material resources for learning, as well as the efforts of the National Commission for Almajiri and Out-of-school Children Education to get the nation’s children off the streets, the President emphasised that his administration will continue to expand access to qualitative education for all Nigerians.

Tinubu reassured the nation of his commitment to ensuring a safe and secure ambience of learning for the children while improving the standard of education.
