"Invest In Your Children"- Jonathan To Nigerians.

PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan has called on all Nigerians to ensure they invest qualitatively in their children in the area of education. This is just as he has promised to encourage private universities with provision of infrastructure. President Jonathan said these on Tuesday at the ground-breaking ceremony of Eagle Heights University (EHU), Omadino, Warri, Warri South Local Government Area of Delta State. Eagle Heights University is the brainchild of the founder of the Word of Life Bible Ministry and president of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor. The president, who was accompanied by the supervising Minister of Education, Wike Nyesom and the governor of Delta State, Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan, said government must support the private sector, especially religious bodies in their quest to establish quality educational institution. He said without the private sector’s contribution to education, especially university education, the country would go nowhere. President Jonathan stated that like China and some other Asian countries had done, university training and education must be technology- driven, in order to revolutionise the country. Jonathan showered praises on products shunned out of universities belonging to religious bodies, saying they were more disciplined and morally discreet than products of conventional ones.
