In her advice to the candidates, she urged them to start thinking about their future now and refrain from all kinds of social vices to ensure they have a bright future.

She asked them not to waste their fruitful time during this examination period on unnecessary works that will make the toil of their parents and guardians be in vain.

The former Deputy Minister for Gender, Children and Social Protection also adviced the female students not to rush in life and allow themselves to be swayed by men in exchange of gifts, but should rather take their studies very serious and focus on their aim.

She said since teenage pregnancy is high in the constituency they should desist from any immoral acts and advances in other not to cut their dreams short.
