Describing education as a passport to a brighter future, the Oyo governor’s wife enjoined the students to be focused on succeeding in their educational pursuits as well as actualizing their dreams in life.

Dignitaries at the event included Secretary to the State Government, Mrs Olubamiwo Adeosun; Head of Service, Mrs Ololade Agboola; Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology, Barrister Rahman Abdul-Raheem; Commissioner for Special Duties, Alhaja Faosat Sanni; Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, Mrs Christianah Abioye, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Inclusion, Mrs Aminat Atere, former Senior Special Assistant, Diaspora to the Oyo State governor, Mrs Bolanle Sarumi, among others.
