Today is world Teachers day and i will like to talk on education where I want to say unequivocally that Aregbe got everything wrong.
From building of new structures to the Opon Imo project to school merging and what have you.
I have toured virtually most schools in at least Iwoland and I can say it categorically that what our schools need is renovation and not new class rooms. In fact there are excess classrooms in some schools visited and I want to believe the same thing is applicable in most local governments in the state. Aregbe wasted billions of naira in erecting new structures instead of renovating the existing ones with little millions of naira. That's misplaced of priority if I may say. I expected Aregbe to do what Ameachi did in River state, Green Revolution. Schools were renovated, painted all in green colour, adequate chairs were provided and every school have a playing ground. Little money would have been spent on this and better result would be achieved. Average students in Osun still go to school with chair and table, else they sit on the floor. We need more chairs and tables, conducive learning environment and the likes.
School merging is one of the greatest mistake Aregbe made. Awolowo' vision was to have a school within 500m radius. Now students needs to walk as far as 3km to the nearest school in the name of school merger. Some students now need to walk as long as a journey between Igege and Ilemowu when going to school. This policy alone got a lot of students out of school. The merger is meaningless to me and has contributed to the present condition of our eduction.
Opon Imo is a scam and it's obvious to the blind. Such innovation can't work in our environment, at least for now. And it has never worked since it's introduction. It has simply made our teachers more lazy. Students are referred to the tablets by their teachers and these are tablets that do not get to students until few weeks to WAEC. Mind you only SS3 students have access to the Opon Imo. What's the faith of other thousands of students in both secondary and primary schools in the state. Half of Opon Imo budget can buy textbooks for all pupils and students in Osun state.
Incentives to Teachers; how would you get the best out of an hungry man?! While other states are rewarding teachers that have done excellently with car gift, Osun is oweing teachers several months of salary. There was a time there are no chalk in Osun schools for teacher to be used to teach students.
Schools in Osun needs more teachers. A teacher takes Physics, Chemistry and biology from SS1 to SS3 in Olupo High school. The same scenario is found in most schools in Osun. Government has done absolutely nothing to ameliorate the problem of inadequate teachers.
Osun schools write internal exam just once in the last one year. Is there any justification for such?! And tell me how our students won't come last in WAEC.
Out of 212 that sat for mathematics in WAEC this year in a school in Iwo, only 41 made credit. You can do the mathematics to get the percentagI will like to talk on education where I want to say unequivocally that Aregbe got everything wrong.

Out of 212 that sat for mathematics in WAEC this year in a school in Iwo, only 41 made credit. You can do that mathematics to get the percentage of failure. And this has been the scenerio in our state in the last four years despite the claim of Aregbe to have spent billion to improve education standard.
Aregbesola may have good intention but his manner of approach are wrong. He has little understanding of how things work in Osun and that is the main reason we are in this mess.
The education summit that was chaired by Prof Wole Soyinka has brought no meaningful advancement to our education. We have continued to go down the ladder among other States.
What has the reclassification of school brought to the development of our education?! Absolutely nothing
Osun government needs to revisit their education policy and review it. Seriously it's not working.
Aregbe got it wrong in his education policy and we are presently experiencing the worst in the state in our education system.
