On behalf of myself, my family, and the good people of Alimosho Constituency’01, I rejoice with and celebrate our teachers on this special day set aside to honour the invaluable contributions of teachers to society. World Teachers’ Day was established by UNESCO in 1994 to recognise and celebrate teachers and their contributions to education and national development.
This year’s theme, “Standing by the Teachers,” is truly thoughtful and profound. It reminds us of the collective responsibility to stand by our teachers, protect the teaching profession, and create an environment where educators can work with dignity, confidence and the necessary support to deliver effectively.
As your representative in the Lagos State House of Assembly, I assure you that I will continue to support policies, programmes and initiatives that protect the interests, welfare and professional development of our teachers. You deserve the very best, and we will continue to do our utmost to ensure that your contributions are recognised and your welfare receives the attention it deserves.
Congratulations to all our dear teachers on this celebration. Thank you for teaching, nurturing, inspiring and shaping the leaders of tomorrow.
Signed
Hon. Luqman Orelope
Member, Lagos State House of Assembly
