                                                                Thank you to everyone in the class of 2025

              T                                                 that I should not let negative experiences
                   hank you to The Regent College for
                                                                solely determine my perception of others
                                                                and that people are more than a single story.
                    recognising me as the overall
              behaviourally outstanding student from            This session went by too fast, and it is not
              the class of 2025. To be frank, I find it         easy to cope with the fact that this may be
              hard to believe that I deserve this               the last day that we will see some of the

              award. I don’t see myself as the most             faces that we have become all too familiar
              well-behaved or being a good enough               with, but it is somewhat bittersweet, knowing
                                                                that by God’s grace, we are all moving
              leader to deserve such recognition.               upwards in life.

              My message to the class of 2025 is to             As we move on from this college to our
              embrace your privilege by using it for the        respective universities, let us never forget all

              good of those around you. Practice                we have learnt here and apply our personal
              empathy and social responsibility, and            growth to becoming better people, for a
              always make a conscious effort to look            better society. I do not just believe, I know
                                                                that the class of 2025 is destined for great
              out for and include the people around             things, and our generation will determine the
              you.                                              future of not just Nigeria, but of the whole
