HELP Foundation, an advocacy group, has called on teachers to comply with global trend of using digital aids to disseminate lessons to students.

The call came as Teachers Day is celebrated October 5, in more than 100 nations to
acknowledge, evaluate and enhance instructors as well as to have a general teaching assessment.
"World has long upgraded to digital and so must all aspect of our society, with education
sector taking the fore front and receiving due attention."

This was contained in a statement by HELP Foundation President, Mr. Olympus Ade-Banjo,
adding that, "there should be provision of digital learning aids in classes, espcecially at basic levels to boost teachers capabilities to give a solid back ground to pupils as they journey in their quest for knowledge in the ever-increasing complex society."

Teachers Day 2019 is commemorated with the theme "YoungTeachers: The Future of the Profession."

HELP also celebrated African teachers and lecturesalike" who defiled odds and up hold the integrity of education by denying themselves of the unfair previleges that the present retrogressive school system affords them."
"We should also laud lecturers who see the potentials in youths and are committed to igniting
them, amidst the darkness of unsafety and uncertainty that define our higher education experience.

"We join our hopes with theirs that soon, we shall all have the education of our dream.One
where professionalism, justice and development are its banners and will be envy of the world." Quoting joint message by UNESCO, the International Labour Organization (ILO), UNICEF, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and Education International, HELP Foundation said, “Without a new generation of motivated teachers,millions of learners will
missout, or continue to miss out, on their right to a quality education. With teachers being underpaid and undervalued, attracting and retaining talent is a challenge."
