A chieftain
of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State, Prince Dayo Adeyeye, has
expressed shock over what he called mass failure of the indigenes from the
state, in the 2018 May/June West African School Certificate Examination.
Adeyeye
blamed it on the “systemic” breakdown of education in the state under Governor
Ayodele Fayose.
This was
contained in a press release signed by his media aide, Bayo Ojo, on Friday.
“One is
shocked with the abysmal mass failure of Ekiti students in the recently
released WAEC 2018 results placing the state on number 23 out of 36 states.
“We have
earlier cried to the public that the celebrated achievement of coming first in
NECO examination was as a result of concerted efforts made by Oni/Fayemi
administrations to reposition the education sector.
“It takes
time for a seed to germinate and bear fruits. The results of the giant strides
of the two administrations and huge investment in pedagogical and
infrastructural facilities was undeservedly appropriated by Fayose as his
achievements.
“One wondered then how you could achieve such
outstanding result without any investment whatsoever in infrastructural and
human capital development. Fayose was claiming that he could reap without
sowing. Now the deceit has finally been exposed,” it read.
