In his address, Achumi encouraged the students to be true to themselves, and to always put God first before everything. Likewise, he asserted that the quality of a student lies in the practice of dedication and discipline.
At the same time, Achumi called on the students to address and voice out against social evils which are taking place in the Naga society.

Asserting that we are stepping in a new future, he encouraged the students to uphold the value of excellence, fairness and social responsibility by working and standing together.
Reflecting on the enduring bond of the Sumi-Chakhesang, he maintained that the bond is a cornerstone built on mutual respect and solidarity, adding that it is a testament of the strength of our shared values and cooperation over the time.
