…. Speaks On Why Osun’s Education Polices Was Reviewed
The Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola, on Tuesday said only the best out of the applicants would be considered for the ongoing recruitment as teachers in the state.
Governor Oyetola stated this in Osogbo on Tuesday during the distribution of educational materials and sports equipment to public schools
Speaking on why Osun’s education policies was reviewed, he said extant education policies of administrations preceding his were tinkered with to achieve optimum performance.
The merger of schools, single school uniforms, and renaming of public schools were some of the policies introduced by the immediate past administration of Mr. Rauf Aregbesola, that were reversed by Oyetola.
Oyetola said, being a product of a public school, he was committed to restoring the lost glory and surpassing it.
He said, “I did mention that as a product of public education myself, I know what public education was and as such, would be wholly committed to restoring that lost glory and surpassing it, in tandem with the realities of the fast-paced 21st century.
“It is this conviction that motivated the focused audit of the education sector we did upon assumption of office and the subsequent steps taken, with the supports of our eminent education stakeholders, to review extant policies for the maximum performance of the sector.”

Speaking earlier, the chairman, State Universal Basic Education Board, Mr Ajibola Famurewa, said distribution of instructional materials, sports materials, and items for School for Special Needs was made a priority by the state government to give the pupils sense of belonging.
He added that the initiative was also aimed at encouraging pupils to develop skills in sports, adding that the state government, with the provision of the items had further demonstrated the resolve to concretise its legacy of qualitative education for the younger generation.
I’ll be very happy if Mr Governor can do that, even people that passed TRCN exams are good enough to employ because, if you don’t know anything about education,i don’t think someone can pass that exams, pls, remove politics and employ good teachers,some of them did not know anything about education not to talk of standing in front of pupils or students and teach.
Kudos to the governor for the new educational development in the state,God will help him and his stakeholders to do the recuitment with justice in other to have good education standard in the state
Competent hands should be considered without favoritism thisis only way to enhance our education system God blessed osun state.
