Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola
Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, has said the provision of quality education to the citizenry is capable of deepening the country?s democracy.
Speaking at the presentation of a book? in his honour, Rauf: Hero of the People, on Wednesday Aregbesola said a people imbued with quality education would be ?easy to lead but difficult to suppress?.
The book is written by a human rights activist, Segun Mayegun, and a linguist, Abosede Kalejaye.
Represented by a Senior Special Assistant on Youth, Sports and Special Needs, Mr. Michael Odesanya, the governor said a well trained youth was a blessing to his society.
Thanking the authors for documenting some of his political engagements, Aregbesola said his administration would continue to invest in quality education and strive to better the living conditions of the masses.
The reviewer of the 93-page book, Chijioke Nwasomba, said the personality and politics of Aregbesola had become a reference point locally and internationally.
Nwasomba, who lectures at the English Department of Obafemi? Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, described the book ?as a worthwhile venture for a society that is dire need of heroes and heroines?.
Nwasomba said, ?The Nigerian society has been hijacked by the decadent and corrupt-minded forces to such a level that cynicism and despair have become the order of the day.
?Where there is a deviation as can be seen in the character and achievements of the current Governor of the State of Osun, it deserves to be documented and celebrated with a view to instilling good values and virtues in youths, who ultimately will be the future leaders of the society.?
