Commissioner Challenges Students to Learn State Anthem

Mrs Modupe Mujota, theOgun State Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology,  has urged the new students of the Ogun State Institute of Technology (OGITECH) Igbesa, Ogun State to learn the lyrics of the State anthem, “Ise Ya”, saying it would help direct their career paths while in the institution.

Mujota said this during the institute’s 10th matriculation of OND and HND  students for the 2015/2016 academic session.

She said the Ogun State anthem stands for virtues of industry, resilience, integrity, prayerfulness, and optimism, among others, all which make up the trademarks of an average native of the state.

She also added that: “We all just sang the Ogun State anthem after that national anthem but I want you all to pay more attention to the lyrics of that song. It talks about those qualities which when imbibed, can make you realise your purpose in this school.

She concluded by saying,“These are the virtues of an average Ogun man and I can tell you that armed with those qualities, you can never lose focus. I also wish to appeal to you not to join bad company so that you don’t destroy your life and career. As I rejoice with you today, I also wish to rejoice with you on your graduation day.”
