The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila has saluted Children on this year’s World Children’s Day, calling for concerted efforts to uplift their lives.
In a statement, Mr Gbajabiamila said Nigerian children deserved a better future; hence all hands must be on deck to achieve the goal.
He said Nigerian children had “great potential”, which if harnessed, would be of great advantage to the country for generations to come.
The speaker promised that the House of Representatives would continue to come up with legislation to empower children educationally.
He, however, urged parents to ensure the good upbringing of their children and wards, aimed at transforming them into “good leaders of tomorrow”.
