Amid Controversy Over Mmesoma’s UTME Score, Kumuyi Speaks On UTME Result
The General Superintendent, Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor Williams Kumuyi, who is also the Proprietor, Deeper Life High Schools, has urged Nigerians to imbibe core values, such as discipline, integrity and hard work.
He also charged youths in the country to be focused and ready to celebrate integrity in their academics.
Kumuyi gave the advice, yesterday, during a media briefing where 16-year-old Miss Nkechinyere Precious Umeh of Deeper Life High School, who scored 360 marks in the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and other students from the school that scored 300 and above were celebrated with their parents.
The General Superintendent, who was represented at the occasion by Pastor Kayode Dada, said: “Establishing DLHS across the country was borne out of burden and passion for total eradication of the current trend of vices prevalent in the society.
“We are committed to ensuring that the school will continue to set very high targets of excellence for her students, while prioritising the mental, spiritual and physical training, as well as grooming and mentoring every child to become a complete package of what God wants for each of them.”
Also, the Education Secretary, DLHS, Mrs. Thelma Malaka, reiterated that the secret behind the success recorded in the school could be rightly attributed to core values, such as holiness, hard work and discipline.
She, therefore, implored parents to do their best at home by raising their children in a godly way as charity begins at home.
She also congratulated Umeh and her co-students for making the school proud.
The School Administrator, Emmanuel Eze, attributed the huge success to zero tolerance for examination malpractices at all levels.
