He maintained that the laudable policies and programmes implemented in the education sector of the state, speak to his administration’s stand that education remains a major antidote to poverty and a way to bridge the inequality gaps that exist in society.
Dr Fayemi further restated the commitment of his administration to not only provide the needed infrastructure that would make teaching and learning conducive but to also improve the quality of teaching and curriculum across all levels of education in the state.
