Since education has been adgudged a tool, per excellence, for all kinds of development.

Please, take a look at where candidates of the two major parties (APC and PDP) are standing on education and make an HONEST comment who should be voted as Oyo State Governor based on the following samples of thier agenda for the state.

Politicians aren't known to walk the talk.

It's all easy to say now, but the paraphernalia of office will eventually cloud their judgment which isn't much to begin with.

One is promising free education while the other wants to renovate classrooms. All good, until you realize that your predecessor emptied the state's account on his way out.

How about retraining your teachers?

How about an education policy that makes sure that no pupil is admitted into the secondary school unless they've clocked 11 years, making primary 6 compulsory.

How about merging primary and secondary schools which have fallen below standard infrastructural and academically.

There's just so much wrong with education in Oyo state.

The indigenes drop out of school before they finish their secondary education.

The boys become mechanic and barber's apprentices, while the girls go learn some hairdressing and probably get pregnant immediately afterwards.

How about a policy to keep all students in school until after their WAEC in SS3?

What about scholarship for students who are deemed brilliant and can continue the rigorous academic life in the university?

How about the interschool debates, jet clubs, chess clubs, functioning public libraries for book clubs that we grew up with in those days in Ibadan? How about bringing them back?

Instead of making promises you can't fulfil.

Oyo state used to be a giant in education, what happened?

All those publishing houses in Ibadan, the first Nigerian University in Ibadan, stellar colleges like Loyola College, Government College Ibadan, GCI, St. Louis girls' school, Kings College, etc.

The government should return schools to missionaries with some form of compensation for bastardizing these schools.

St. Patrick's Grammar school/college is an eyesore. So sad.
