Quality Education: Group To Honour ex UBEC Boss



A former Executive Secretary of the Universal Basic Education Commission UBEC Prof. Ahmed Modibbo is set to be honoured for the positive impact he has played in the development of qualitative education in the country.

Save De Globe International  a group registered with the United Nations and official promoters of the Sustainable Development Goals SDG in Nigeria said in a press statement made available to newsmen and signed by its National Coordinator Barr. Ogbu Francisca that its decision to honour Prof. Modibbo was based on the kind of policies he put in place in the various educational positions he has held over the years.

The statement described the former boss of the National Teachers Institute and one time lecturer at the Ahmadu Bello University as someone who is committed to the development of qualitative education and who has shown himself to be in tune with goal four of the Sustainable Development Goals initiative. ''as a major promoter of the Sustainable Development Goals initiative, we make bold to state that Prof. Modibbo needs to be celebrated for his positive role in education in the country. The fact that he is no longer in public office makes it all the more expedient for us to honour him for his good works while in public office. We believe in encouraging and celebrating people out of office so as to motivate those in office today to perform well so as to be celebrated when they leave office tomorrow. Ahmed Modibbo is an epitome of hard work and commitment to educational development in the country and has to be honoured'' the statement added.

Meanwhile the Save De Globe International has also stated that it will begin its school to school awareness programme in Nasarawa state. It said the awareness programme is aimed at educating students in the state on what the SDG is all about so as to keep them abreast with the programme. The group decried a situation whereby Nigerians remain out of touch with the programmes of the United Nations Organisation. It also decried the situation whereby Nigeria youths have failed to develop a career within the global body. ''It is disheartening that our youths have failed to build a career within the United Nations Organisation as well as other global bodies. we wish to address this issue as we embark on our school to school awareness programme''. The statement concluded.

Rivers people on that   fateful day showed that they wanted the right man for the job in defiance of the foisting of an unknown candidate chosen from the blues to fly the flag of the party. The solidarity which the people of the state and APC members showed for the Ogoni born Senator has to be respected by the party unlike what is happening today where the party seems to be favouring the emergence of Tonye Cole all in the bid to please the former governor of t...
