It is not today we are having a hike in fuel price. This cannot derail the educational system.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNobody is protesting the hike and no parents have complained that they cannot take their children to school for learning. This is not adding up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo every reasonable and rational individual, the government has erred again. It is one of the mistakes of the state government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is not in the interest of the children; it is not in the interest of the parents and it is not in the interest of the educational system,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Uwadiae-Enosorogbe called for the reversal of the decision, saying the state education had suffered a lot under this administration.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, statistics of performance for the recently released results of the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) ranked Edo 26th as against 1st and 2nd positions in the past.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you now postpone resumption, how are you going to mitigate the time you have made them to stay at home deliberately. Meanwhile, the parents are not complaining,\u201d the APC spokesperson said.<\/p>\n<p>He called on the stakeholders to prevail on the government to open the school, adding that it was illogical for the government to keep at home children whose parents had paid school fees and bought textbooks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe children are eager to go back to classes to learn. So the government should not use political gimmickry to checkmate them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEdo government should be talked to, because the action is an aberration; the action is uncalled for; the action is not in the interest of anybody,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Uwadiae-Enosorogbe said he was surprised that the state government could be sacrificing the educational pursuit of the children for politics.
