Nigerians have been urged to stop paying lip services to the development of Education in the country by funding and showing more commitment.
"This is one of the ways by which poverty, insecurity and poverty can be fully eradicated in the country".
The advice was given in a message by Mr Adekunle Soyombo, the chairman and founder of a not-for-profit , Non-Governmental charity organisation, the Adekunle Soyombo Foundation, ASF while donating educational materials to students across 4 local governments in Ogun State.
The educational support tagged, "ASF Back to School Programme" had one thousand (1000) bags containing items which include big notes exercise books, sandals, mathematical sets and other educational materials distributed across Primary and Secondary schools in Odeda, Obafemi-Owode, Abeokuta North and Abeokuta South local government areas of the State.
Mr Soyombo said, when education is fully developed it would have a better influence on the youth especially as it concerns meeting the needs of the people, security, workforce and labour.
He said, governments at all tiers have paid lip services to quality education for too long, urging private individuals and organisations to partner government to better education.
