“I believe the children are our future

Teach them well and let them lead the way

Show them all the beauty they possess inside

Give them a sense of pride

To make it easier…”

These lines from the ‘Greatest Love of All’ song by Whitney Houston resonated with the activities of Rotary Club of Ikoyi on February 26 as the Area Commander in charge of Lagos Island, Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Olubode Ojajuni was invited to deliver a lecture to a group of schools.

The Campaign against Cultism, Hard Drug and Social Vices was part of the World Peace and Conflict Prevention Lecture held by the Rotary Club in partnership with the Nigeria Police Force.

The students were addressed at the event held on Osborne School Complex, Osbourne Road, in Ikoyi.
