He said the actions of the government is predicated on the belief that education is the bedrock for any meaningful development of any country in general and Taraba State in particular.

He challenged the graduates of the school scattered all over the world to remember to keep the oath they took, because is one thing to take an oath, is another thing to keep to the oath.

Emmanuel called on all the pastors who passed through the college to leave by example and make sure they contribute their quota to the growth and development of TCNN.
