Trust TV hosts students on Children’s Day

The Trust TV played host to students from selected schools subscribing to Teen Trust Newspaper to mark the 2025 Children’s Day Celebration.

The students spoke about their feelings about the special day dedicated to celebrating them and also about building their future career.

They were also given the opportunity to anchor the programme and they had the opportunity to ask the Trust TV hosts, Lilian Ogazi and Hauwa Adamu, about their journey as journalists.  

Chinedu Mmaduneme from Lordswill Academy and Oluwamuyin Adio of Lead British International wanted to know at what point the Trust TV hosts made the decision to become journalists and the possible challenges they experience in the field.  

The Trust TV hosts also asked if the students would like to be journalists and Chinedu said based on what he is studying in school, which is science, he is probably going into medicine and surgery.

“I would say not because as a person, I’m very computer and technology-inclined. So, in the field of journalism, I would rather be behind the cameras rather than in front of the cameras,” he said.

Talking about what fascinates him about the medical field, he said: “Well, it’s complex and it’s very fragile, but it’s very, very intricate. And how you’re dealing with the human body and how someone’s life is really in your hands is not like it gives me any pressure or anything. It just gives me that determination to save your life.”

For Oluwamuyin, she said: “I’ve never really thought of it that way because as he said, I’m also really into medicine because I love the fact that you can heal people. My aunt is actually really inspiring me, but who knows? Maybe I can be a journalist in the future. Yeah, maybe a health journalist.”

Speaking on Children’s Day, Benedicta Ewam of Shining Star College said on the day, they spend quality time with each other.

“We go out to play fun games, or go out to watch movies, or me, just ice cream or pickling. It’s just a day to enjoy the company of each other and celebrate the joy of being kids together.”

For Aisha Abdul Azeez, she said to improve the quality of education received in Nigeria, they need adequate teachers to close the gap in the students – teachers ratio, adding, “Well, the point is most students don’t have quality education because they don’t have enough teachers.”

She also urged the government to increase the salary of teachers and ensure prompt payment to encourage them to deliver quality education.
