Renowned legal luminary and Mutawali of Ilorin, Dr Alimi AbdulRazaq has called on corporate bodies and well-meaning individuals in the country to join hands with the governments in the building of school infrastructure that would improve the learning environment for academic success of the students.
He also admonished all students to imbibe reading culture and study hard towards achieving greatness in life.
AbdulRazaq spoke in Ilorin, Kwara State’s capital as the guest reader at an event tagged: “Read With Me”, where he led some participating secondary school students in reading a few chapters of “The Path of Fate”, a book written by Funmilayo Braithwaite.
The book reading session was organised by Plat Technologies Limited in partnership with Iqra Books to promote reading habits among students in the state.
“Plat technologies have done a great job by coming up with this reading session and building very impressive toilet facilities for the students as part of their CSR project. I want to use this opportunity to appeal to other businessmen and women in Kwara to please join hands with the government in its ongoing efforts to develop school infrastructure and make the learning environment conducive,” he said.
AbdulRazaq hailed the brilliance of the students that partook in the post-reading questions and answers, acknowledging that their gesture was a product of right investments by the government in the education sector and commitment of their parents.
