Federal Polytechnic in Ado on Friday.
The Governor who was represented by the Secretary to the State
Government Dr Habibat Adubiaro charged the students to embrace
self-development, self-improvement and brace up for the challenges
ahead.
“I advised that as a female student or a girl child, you must know
whom you are so that the society can be proud of you tomorrow because
you shall also get to the position in life she advised”
“As a country we are almost getting to the point of having a female
governor even president in future, the reason why we practice
Government of inclusion in Ekiti where our Governor has female as his
deputy governor, female as the SSG and also the first female speaker
in the house of assembly. she said”
“Ekiti State is first state in Nigeria that occupied women in all this
positions in the whole of Nigeria, and this is to tell you that our
Governor loves and appreciates you in all spheres of life. She added”.
“Am a teacher and a former lecturer of chemistry in the faculty of
science at the Federal University, Oye, where female students are
leading in all the subjects in the department of Chemistry, Physics
and others, to show that females are breaking the barrier already”.
Adubiaro advised the students to consider choosing a life partner that
will share and key-in into their vision whenever they are ready.
“getting married is not the end of one’s Carrier because I got married
when I was in the university and my husband has been a pillar of
support for me to attain this position even as I am a PhD holder
today, that means you can become whatever you want with the support of
a good husband that will aid your aspiration to attain any level in
life, she advised”
The Wife of the Governor Dr.Olayemi Oyebanji in her remarks commended
the organizers of the summit for choosing such an inspiring theme.
The Governor’s Wife noted that light connotes life, happiness,
prosperity and a perfect being.
“As female students in Nigeria, you are the light of the world because
you Carry a light that shines brightly in a society that is still
grappling with issues of gender inequality, discrimination and Gender
based violence. The light represents the potentials, your aspirations
and your determination to succeed or excel despite the many challenges
you face” she said
Dr Olayemi who was represented by a scholar, Dr. Adenike Kolawole said
to unleash the power of excellence the students must be ready to
overcome the obstacles that stand on their way and must be prepared to
work hard, stay focused and to persevere in the face of adversity.
