I extend my warmest congratulations to all
the students graduating and equally to their parents for their success that we celebrated
yesterday. It is a special day for the graduands, it is a celebration of the
culmination of a number of years of study. I am very much aware of the vast
efforts and the extensive sacrifices that have paved the way to their success.
I welcome their dedication, hard work, their love for progress and achievement,
and their commitment to Education. I hope it will be an occasion that they will
remember fondly for the rest of their lives. I congratulate all of them again and wish them all, every
success for the future.
