Speech To Mark The International Day Of Education by Comrade Emmanuel Ekpe,the SRC/SUG President, Obong University, Always Ibom State, Nigeria. On December 3, 2015, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) adopted a resolution proclaiming January 24th as the International Day of Education, in celebration of the role of education towards global peace and sustainable development. International Day of Education 2020 is being celebrated globally with the theme "Learning for People, Planet, Prosperity and Peace". This year's celebration position education and the learning it enables, as humanity's greatest renewable resources and also affirms the role of education as a fundamental right and a public good. Education as one of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) never at a point stand or operate alone. It incorporates, life, environment, wealth, and stability which is where the team of this year stem from. In light of the complex challenges faced by humanity today, the level at which countries invest in not only education but a quality one will determine their future prosperity, strength, and stability. Education as a whole has a great impact on every aspect of development such as reducing poverty, creating a higher income, advancing gender equality and reducing child/girls' marriages. Today, education is in crisis because the stakeholders such as government, traditional rulers, families and corporate bodies are and not doing enough and because of this millions are left behind doors leading to create an environment in crisis. To ensure adequate education government needs to step up their game, by recognising it as a major responsibility, traditional rulers need to sensitize their subject and corporate bodies should provide corporate social responsibilities to the communities they operate in. As the international day of education is celebrated it will avail us of the knowledge of the many ways learning can empower people, preserve life and foster peace. Happy #EducationDay #AlutaContinua #UN

...By their good works, Christians reveal how people ought to live in their marriages, their families, their work, and their communities in all spheres of life. History has consistently shown that the people of Christ have always been at the front of such movements in society which reveal the mercy, goodness and justice of God. An example of this was the abolition of slave trade in Britain by William Wilberforce. He received encouragement from fellow-brethren who saw the injustice and evil of slavery. Orphanages, schools for the blind and deaf, ministries to the handicapped, needy and the less privileged and have been promoted by Christians wherever the church has been planted around the world. God wants the church to restrain the world from becoming more evil. God’s plan for the good works of His Church is to touch all parts of human life. Christian gatherings were called the church ever after the Pentecost. The role of the church in our contemporary generation can be exemplary explained from Mark 6: 34-39 above. The stated scripture above explains how Jesus, firstly, met the spiritual and educational needs of the people (…and he began to teach them many things). Secondly, meeting the infrastructural needs of the people at the time since he held his teaching on an environmentally favorable avenue (39And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass). And lastly, how he met the social needs of the people he was teaching by feeding them. (41And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.42And they did all eat, and were filled). It is pertinent to note that these people were not necessarily poor people, but rather multitude, representing the society as a whole declassifying that it was not a particular class of people. The work of the Church continues; it did not cease when Jesus himself left the earth or when the first twelve disciples died. But, rather the Church’s mission has passed to each generation of God’s people. If our Lord and savior Jesus Christ said to us that we are the salt of the earth and a city set on a hill that cannot be hid. And he showcased this exemplary leadership. It would therefore mean, ipso fac
