A corps member, Okoroha Kingsley, serving in Elekahia, Rivers State, decided to award a prize to the best student in his class.
He got him a Lenovo laptop…
See what he wrote below…
“Meet Okoro izuchukwu gospel, the eventual winner of the laptop i had previously donated to be given to the best graduating ss3 student of GSSS Elekahia. He hails from Imo state Nigeria and aspires to become a lawyer. He was moved to tears as he never expected such prize for his diligence and hardwork. In a society where talentless people are celebrated, profanity is rewarded, nudity lauded, in a society where the winner of a math olympiad gets a mathset and some notebooks while a teenager skilled in the act of “Azontry” and “shokitude” gets a car as a reward, This gesture of mine was aimed at recognizing and giving honour to whom it is actually due… The hardworking ones with a zeal for academic excellence”
Coming on the brink of yesterday’s post where we condemned the gesture of giving N250 to the 2015 best graduating student of Pediatric department in UNIPORT, (read here if you missed it) this is a good acknowledgment of educational values.
