According to Lere Olayinka, spokesman of the governor, Fayose said this at Covenant University, Ota, Ogun state, while attending the convocation ceremony of Ayorogbayimika, his son.

The governor said the standard of education in the county will improve if public office holders enrol their children in Nigerian universities.

He said the country would save foreign exchange if public officers are compelled to have their children school in the country.

“Even children of President Muhammadu Buhari that they told us lived a modest life attended universities abroad,” he said.

“Shouldn’t President Buhari have lived by example by enrolling his children in universities in Nigeria?”

The governor said there was no reason for children of public office holders to study outside Nigeria, except in cases where the courses they are interested in are not offered in the country.

“We talk and do. Whatever we say is what we practice. Apart from the fact that none of my children attended schools abroad, I have never travelled out of the country for medicare,” Fayose said.

“Even though the views of people like us might not be popular among the powers that be because we say the truth and act the truth, we won’t stop telling them what they do not like to hear and one of such is that the only way to improve the standard of education in the country is for children of holders of public office to experience what children of ordinary Nigerians are experiencing in schools in the country.

“During my first tenure as governor, I took my son from a private school and enrolled him in SUBEB model primary school in Ado Ekiti. Today again, I am here to witness the graduation of my son and I make bold to say here that none of my children attended a tertiary institution outside Nigeria.

“That should be the spirit not a situation where someone is the minister of education in Nigeria and his children are schooling abroad. And by enforcing this too, we will be saving Nigeria a lot of foreign exchange being wasted on medical and academic tourism.”

The governor said he would continue to ensure that Ekiti maintains its position as “leaders in the education sector.”

Fayose is a hypocrite just like Buhari.


None of his kids studied abroad,
But his sister studied abroad...and he has houses abroad,
He has investments abroad.
He holidays abroad.


Who is fooling who?
Enough of whipping up unnecessary sentiments.
All Nigerian politicians deserve to be executed in a revolution.
None of them are good.

I'll have to agree with Fayose on this. let's learn to live by example.

We ewedu muslims and skull grabbers disagree with you Gomina fayose.

This man and Buhari don wear same trousers, atleast they share one thing in common; spectacle.

9ja politicians and Yeye talk be like..

pmb is just a hypocrite!!!! Mr integrity my foot.

wati your children dey do. na to study for Nigeria be the mata

Many people actually believed that act buhari put up as being prudent and modest. Wow. How gullible.

is sending one's children abroad to study a crime?


If PMB could afford that luxury before be became the President, what is wrong with that?


I see this simply as a matter of choice.


If you can afford to but still choose to have your children study in Nigeria, nothing is wrong with that as well

Fayose the fcking liar.

But he didn't have money to buy presidential ticket...

Being gullible like always

No ultra!!

I am not a fan of Fayose but he have point. Buhari have children schooling abroad and goes to London for common ear treatment, only to claim he is a modest person, what will he do if he is flamboyant? Everything about Buhari is contradictory. He accused GEJ of wasting tax payers money on private jet while he is wasting foreign exchange just to pay parking fee while the jet gather dust in London. He accused Yaradua of not resigning due to his illness while is he London sick and the economy is on autopilot. Buhari will end up being the worst president Nigeria ever have....

If this is true then he's a liar. Do you have any source to backup your claim? It doesn't really make any difference because politicians are what they are, POLITICIANS.
