Mr. Kendor said it is vital for parents to focus on the impact that their children are making in relation to their outputs.
According to him, the success of their children does not come from the building of the school, but from what their children can acquire for their future contribution to the larger society.
Speaking Sunday during the graduation of the True Redeemed Destiny School, Kendor further urged the graduates to take their education seriously, describing education as the key to success.
He disclosed that success is at the top of their future's ambitious decision to make it to the top through quality education.
The Acting Director for Policy, Standard and Procedures Division of the Public Procurement and Concessions Commission challenged the graduate to be transparent and do away with acts of corruption in school.
According to him, the best mechanism every student can put into place is to pay attention to his or her study.
He expressed gratitude to the parents of the graduates and the administration for the level of support given to the kids.
