Speaking on the idea behind the Bashorun Askia Foundation BAF Schools Debate, the Founder and President of the foundation, Bashorun Askia Ogieh said he considered it expedient to give adequate attention to education to inspire academic excellence particularly amongst teenagers to redirect their minds away from things that would not add value to their lives for a productive and prosperous nation.
