He joins the global community in celebrating this significant day, which was first established in 1954 as Universal Children’s Day to promote international togetherness and awareness among children worldwide.
Dr. Kareem emphasizes the importance of upholding the fundamental rights of every child, ensuring they receive necessary support for normal development, both materially and spiritually. He identifies Key Rights of Every Child as:

As governor, Dr. Kareem vows to prioritize these rights, providing quality education, healthcare, and protection from exploitation to ensure every child in Oyo State thrives. “A child’s smile is the beacon of hope for a brighter future,” he says. “As leaders, we must support our children with unwavering strength, empowering them to become the better Nigerian we all desire.”
By celebrating World Children’s Day, we reaffirm our commitment to protecting and promoting children’s rights. Together, we can build a brighter future where every child grows, thrives, and reaches their full potential.
