The first was to tell ourselves the truth that the structure of SUBEB we met was not working. So, I had to post out everybody we met and recruited fresh ones into the system. We focused on training our teachers as part of our reforms in transforming our education.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor us in Edo, we had no choice, because you find children leaving secondary schools, either working as barbers or something else. Some even sell whatever they have because someone has promised them a job in Europe or travel to Libya.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt one point in time, we had about 30,000 young men and women from Edo in Libya, waiting to cross to Europe. If they had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/11\/18\/zamfara-pdp-drags-state-govt-to-court-over-planned-demolition-of-secretariat\/\">education<\/a>\u00a0and could think, read and write, they would ask more questions before deciding to embark on such a risk.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor us, that was a wake-up call. For my brothers in the north-east and north-west, with the rising wave of banditry, I think the wakeup call is to bring these children back to school and get them to learn.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The governor said with the growing number of out-of-school children in the country, the federal government should scrap the Universal Basic Education (UBEC) if it is no longer effective.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have 50 million or so children under our care and over 10 million of them are not in school,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat is our reason for existing if we have this kind of problem? So, for me, Mr. President, if UBEC and SUBEB cannot get 50 percent of these school children back to school in the next two to three years, disband them as there is no basis for it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governor of Edo state, Godwin Obaseki has stated that the federal government should use basic education to end banditry in the country.
