“Today, we can see what two individuals have done to improve the quality of foundational education,” he stated.

Going further, he said: “These are kids that can stand their ground if they are paired with children of the same age anywhere in the world. That means the educational system if structured right can produce same quality of human capacity as you find in advanced countries. That’s what we saw today.”

Also speaking Mrs. Imansuagbon gave the media a thumbs up for its support for the Pacesetters Schools over the years.

Highlight of the day was the graduation of over 400 pupils and students of the Pacesetters School comprising of Kindergarten, Primary and Secondary schools graduands and also the Special Recognition awards given to Governor Obaseki who was the Special Guest of Honour of the occasion and some other high networth individuals for their contributions to educational development in Nigeria.
