Christiana Timileyin Akinlaja, an SS3 student of Fakunle Unity Government High School, Osogbo, has recently won a National Essay Competition on COVID-19, VOICE AIR MEDIA reports.
A Competition organised by Solomon Empire, a non-governmental organisation, with the theme: ‘How should government and corporate organisations prepare people towards post COVID-19 and future pandemics’.
The young girl, an indigene of the state, was hosted by the Deputy Governor, State of Osun, Benedict Alabi, on Thursday in his office at Abeere, Osogbo.
Alabi praised the student for being clear-headed and focus, as he commended her mother for raising such talented offspring.
He, however, advised the student to sustain that tempo of scholarship and versatility, adding that such intellectual feat requires more responsibilities and sacrifices.
Alabi opined that the resolve of the Adegboyega Oyetola’s administration to produce more responsible and productive youths through sound education is unwavering.
“I congratulate you and your family on this enviable feat; you are indeed a good ambassador of our state and one of many promising youths we are nurturing through qualitative and sustainable education policy.”
According to him, there is no doubt that it is a reflection of the level of commitment and creativity this present administration had brought to bear in the education system in Osun; “there is no gainsaying that our efforts have started yielding tremendous results.”
“Many might see this your piece on COVID-19 as a mere essay, but we consider it as a sound solution and resource materials for the management of socioeconomic impacts of post Covid-19 and future pandemics,” Alabi added.
As a responsible government, the deputy governor promised that the state government shall continue to do its best in repositioning all sectors of the societal structure for better performance and enviable results.

Earlier in his remarks, the Commissioner for Education, Folorunso Adedoyin, enjoined parents to support government in the quest for quality education .
“Education can never be driven successfully by government alone, we need supporting parents, as you know that the first school for every student is the home, while the first teacher is the parent”, Adedoyin added.
Also speaking, the Special Adviser to the governor on education, Jamiu Olawunmi, said the feat attained by the student was a follow-up to what had earlier been achieved in the state in March, when a student of Osogbo Grammar School, Master Abdulahi Akintade, emerged as the Overall Best Young Nigerian Scientist.
Olawunmi noted that the achievements of the two students remain a reflection of responsible parentage, enjoining parents to play their parts effectively and help government to deliver 21st century knowledge.
