- “Excellence is not something that just happens; it is something you plan for, and you do it in a very meticulous way. And when you do it consistently, it then becomes a culture. Once excellence becomes a culture, it is very difficult for you to see something which is mediocre and associate with it. Everything you do, even in your personal life, would be different.”
The Chairman, Board of Supreme Education Foundation, Magodo, Lagos, Mr Peter Bamkole, has urged students in the country to constantly strive for excellence in order to excel in their future endeavours.
Bamkole gave the advice at the 2019 graduation and valedictory service of Corona Secondary School Agbara, Ogun State.
