All is not well with Ogun State and has not been for about five or so years. Forget the bridges built in places without a history of traffic jam or media jamborees like the one of hosting President Buhari to mark 40 years of the state's creation (as if we were the only one celebrating such) and the model schools that have not been completed 5 years after they were started. Some fundamental/primary things are being left to rot while needless grandiose things have become the raison d'être of the government.

The one that is highly shocking is that of the unannounced "suspension" of promotional examination in all government secondary school. My little cousin has come home four days in a row a little more dispirited than the previous day because the examinations scheduled to start on the 18th of July has not yet commenced as at yesterday 21st. Children prepare to go and do PROMOTIONAL examinations and are met with hand-wringing teachers who are also devoid of information of what exactly is going on.

This begs the question: WHY DID THE AMOSUN ADMINISTRATION MOVE TO CENTRALIZE EXAMINATION FOR ALL SCHOOLS? Since the start of this new system by the administration, it has been bedevilled and plagued with shodiness, ineptness and unpreparedness. Many say this is an example of many half-baked policy that has been churned out which take no cognisance of realities on ground or the real suffering and yearnings of Ogun people, but that is a matter for another day.

All we want is that our children learn in good schools and do exam when they are scheduled to without the additional emotional roller-coaster of "Will exam hold?". If the Ogun State Ministry of Education cannot conduct a standardized examination for all students as scheduled, then it's a shame. It should accept defeat and bring back decentralized examinations. We will forgive them. For a while.

Did you say he hosted Buhari? If yes then, the answers to your questions are not unconnected to that action. He has gotten infected with dullness. He might have even gone deaf by now.

Which barawo lick the sauce for your news na ??

hmm

Op, this happens almost every year since the introduction of the centralized examination. I can't remember the last time school children got their results at the end of the term. I wonder if an assessment of the effects of the combined examination has been carried out. Ogun state keeps falling every year in the performance indices release by WAEC. This shows the policy has had no positive effect on students' perfirmance in external examinations. Why the examination has not been scrapped remains a mystery to me.

OP, do you also know that some teachers were sacked because they set exam questions that bordered on this issue? Amosun is a man on a mission, and that mission is to return the PDP back to Oke--mosan.

okay.

Governor is following oga at the top

One plot here for my skarlett. Please koman take over

This plot is for Yuneehk. Sweetheart, just gree to be my girlfriend and vote for IAMKINGZLEE and I'll get you more plots.

If there is anything Amosun got wrong during his administration,IT'S THIS EDUCATION THING,why build new model schools when the old ones are in shamble state,why centralize exams when you know you can not effectively oversee it,what is the essence of textbook giving when pupils are already psychologically disoriented,he did that last year too,if your commisioner of education is not competent enough why not relief him/or her of duty,what will be the essence of bridges and roads built today when our furture is being eaten away by your roller coaster educational policies.

As funny as this comment is ,it is the honest truth.

Ok........ I just saw on nairaland rule no.22....Dont ask nairaland members for contact details(email, phone, bbpin) or investments...
Why na Lol

Back to the matter on discourse..
Many governors are mere humans who weren't able to manage more than their families but were hit with an opportunity to manage a state

This is the plain fact. the state of education in Ogun since the advent of this administration has been from one mess to another.
hope the sector will be saved one day

He is buying time to implement aregbesola's style of education. Leave the real education, collapse the schools into one, enforce hijab and disorientate the children and divide them along religious lines. Meanwhile merging of schools and centralizing exams is to achieve a common ground.

Something need to be done,ogun state has produced so far d best of Nigeria genius,such has tai solarin,wole soyinka,awololowo nd d rest.pls amosun don't draw us back nw.

Oyo, Ogun and Osun toying with the future of our kids.
