The wife of the Anambra State Governor, Mrs. Nonye Soludo, states that teaching remains the most important vocation in the cadre of global professions.
The Governor’s wife, who stated this in a statement to mark 2023 World Teachers’ Day, explained that the vocation is esteemed because of the invaluable impacts that teachers have continued to make on the entire human generation.
She noted that the teaching profession has not only remained distinct because of its legacies but mainly because of the immense sacrifice with which people in the vocation have carried out their duties.
Mrs Soludo, whose mother, the late Mrs Gloria Ezenwanne, rose from a school teacher to the rank of education secretary, stated that coming from such a background gave her a firsthand privilege of the heavy sacrifice that teachers make to the home and the larger society.
She described her mother as not just an extraordinary classroom teacher but a woman who used her cherished vocation to make a lifetime impact on the world around her.
She further explained that the current recruitment of three thousand teachers in Anambra State, to complement the earlier five thousand recruited last year, shows that the present administration appreciates the essence of quality teaching in the educational development of any society.
While wishing teachers across the world the best of service, Mrs Soludo urged them to always remember that a teacher’s role is a sacred task that must be used to breed and nurture mankind for the overall good of society.
The Nigerian Tribune reported that World Teachers’ Day is commemorated on October 5 of every year to celebrate the world’s oldest vocations and remember those who are using the revered occupation to make the world a better place.
