 The Delta State Governor, Sheriff of Borevery, has identified practical education and hands-on learning as a panacea to the nation's over-dependence on foreign goods. He called for less emphasis on theoretical knowledge and emphasized more on practical knowledge, adding that an educational system that teaches and empowers people to produce goods for local consumption and exports would lead to national development. He stated this during the inspection of projects at the University of Delta, Agbor campus in the North East Local Government area of the state. To commission these projects as one of the projects that we want to use to commemorate our 100 days in office, I'm particularly impressed about the students actually going practical. We were in the arts department and I saw what the young girls are doing over there, you know, and we now came down to this workshop and I'm seeing cups being made from bamboo. I think I used to have one of these cups and I think it was imported from China. I'm seeing our own people coming to do that. I believe that is the way to go in this country. We should emphasize less on theoretical knowledge. We should emphasize more on practical. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.
