Education Broke My Limitations, Boundaries and Enlightened my mind.

By; Opadeji Samuel Olumide

Without any modicum of doubt, Man cannot be overdressed with wisdom or overeducated.

According to the way it was initially used in the year (1531), it was explained and examined by the sage of then that education can be seen as the skill, knowledge, and understanding one obtain from a particular institution and a particular atmosphere of living.

Nelson Mandela of south Africa said and I quoted "Education is the best legacy" can that be viewed and realised as a false statement? To all parents reading this, no matter how voluminous your property or properties might be, it can't be compared to EDUCATION.

Opadeji Samuel Olumide of (2018) describe education as the ability, competency, capability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or self confidence.

In regards to our nation present stand, education is a very vital tool which will be an aid to help hasten the greener pasture nation we are craving for.

If you may reminisce with me dear readers,
why shouldn't we be educated?
In regards to our God's given wisdom, can it be vividly used without education?
Of what use is our talent without education?
Without education we keep looking for means to know and understand our rights as a citizen of a nation, can that be ever possible?
We are all looking for means to sustain our metabolism, getting into the labour market, without education how fruitful can it be?

Let's examine a story of an hardworking, industrious and diligent woman who happens to be a mother of four (4) who is opportune to be a secretary in a reputable finance house by luck with just her incomplete o'level result. Things seems to be going on nice and amazingly great for herself, children, husband and other relatives, not until after some years, it was a regime of a new government where all workers in the company were asked to present their certificates. In regards to all factuality, due to the woman inability to further her education she was actually retrenched.

Shouldn't that serve as a lesson to all? I did then what I know how to do best. Now that I know better, I do better.

As I will retire my pen at this point, I will leave you all with this quote to reminisce on that "The mind once enlightened cannot again become dark"

Education, the foundation of every relevant life!
