Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States of America once said, “Nothing can stop the man with the right character from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong character”. Your degree is just a piece of paper, your education is seen in your behavior, attitude and character.

That’s about 50% of the health facilities in the country where medicines and vaccines can be kept cold.❄️💉

Let every teacher who accepts the responsibility of educating the children and youth, examine himself, and study critically from cause to effect.
