Vice-Principal, Corona Secondary School, Mr. Paul Oba has urged 
parents to allow their children study whatever course they are good at, 
nothing that success in does not only depend on your discipline but on 
what you have passion in. He stated this during Corona Secondary 
School’s   three days Art Exhibition held at Gbagada branch of the 
school to mark the school 60th anniversary.
He urged parents to let go of their child who have talents in art. 
Records abound out there about
people who went through education to do 
what their parents want them do. At the end of the day, they still came 
back to what they have passion for. People are earning their livelihood 
on things they take as hobby. Oba said: “It is not about forcing the 
child to do what you want, if you do, the child will not be happy. Some 
people who obeyed their parents doing what they want, ended up dropping 
it for what they love. We have a lot of parents in our school who came 
to us to say, “I went through this and I don’t want my children to go 
through that.”
A word its enough for the wise. Well said Mr.Paul Oba.
Its high time parents allow children do what they love. 
Change!!!
