According to him, “Education is the future and the future is education. When you give your children quality education, you are investing in their future.”
Professor Gwarzo then appealed “to parents and guardians to invest in basic education, stressing that it’s the foundation upon which students build when they go to university for higher education”.
He added that no amount of money spent on children to acquire a sound and qualitative education will be wasted.
According to him, “in fact, it is the best heritable legacy one can bequeath on children that cannot be withdrawn from them in future.”
He announced the donation of a 30-seater luxurious bus to Intercontinental Schools in Kano.
