Lagos Speaker Extols Teachers

Speaker of Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa, yesterday described teachers as the most important professionals in any society.

Speaking at Government Senior Girls College, Agege where he joined other well-meaning Lagosians to celebrate the 2022 edition of the World Teachers Day, he noted that no sane society could undermine the value of those in the profession.

He stated further that the importance of teaching could be more appreciated with an understanding that through it, many other professions are born.

While commending the Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT) in Lagos for making the state proud and for sustaining the relationship between the body and the government, the speaker promised that the latter would continue to do its best to meet the welfare of those in the profession.

“I want to congratulate you on this day and to further join you in this celebration of your day. It is good that you have a day to celebrate yourselves.
