Ologunorisa noted that education plays a crucial role in dispelling misconceptions and equipping individuals with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions.
Ologunorisa recalled that his late father was committed to the advancement of his children education and that of the less privileged in the community.
He said, “Baba’s legacy was that of human capital development through the promotion of Jeremy Bentham’s philosophy of “the promotion of the greatest good of the greatest number.
“This abiding ethos and credo of his existence saw his unflinching commitment to the advancement of the education of his children and that of the less privileged in his community.
“In retrospect, it is on record that Baba lived a life of spartan self-discipline foregrounded by contentment and self-abnegation (sacrifice).”
