By Paul Michael

Acting Zonal Commander of the Ibadan Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), ACE II Hassan Saidu, has called on Nigerian parents to inculcate acceptable values in their children through exemplary behaviours for a better and quality upbringing that would berth positive changes in the Nigerian polity.

The Ag. Commander made this call on Thursday during a sensitization lecture organized by Right Thinkers Global Initiative (aka EAGLEPING) at Adekile Goodwill Grammar School, Aperin, Ibadan, Oyo State.
According to him, all forms of corruption essentially revolve around the degeneration of personal and social ethical values.

He further added that the inability of parents and teachers to build sound morals of respect for rules and regulations on children places a heavy burden on society.

Saidu said, “Ethics measures the standard of right and wrong, so you will agree with me that whatever is ethical is moral, and the failure of parents and teachers in school to instill sound morals of respect for rules and regulations burden the nation with a new generation of citizens who believe that you can do anything and get away with it.”
