Okoukoni said the importance of education cannot be over-emphasized as it still remains the sure foundation of any developed nations.

“If a country is said to be developed, the educational system of that country has the credit,” he added.

The founder of Okoukoni Care Foundation noted that there are a lot of school children that have dropped out of schools or ended up their educational pursuit half way just because there is no money to further it.

He said as a lover of education, he will not fold his hands and watch the children who are the future leaders of the country been deprived from achieving their goals and put the country in the right footings.

He said that, to achieve that, the children must be allowed to go to school and not to be hindered.
