, Zaria, Kaduna State has described the current state of the Nigerian education system, especially the public primary schools as “very depressing”.
“Public education has been drawn to the dust, has been abandoned. And you find that as a result, the bad quality in the public primary school is what is feeding the public secondary school, and is what is feeding the public universities system. And so we are struggling with quality across those three levels”
He said while “you cannot legislate decisions regarding parental desires for where their kids should go… the law is made for man, not man for the law. And given our current reality, the dilapidation and the collapse in the public school system, it is a shame that when they were presented with the moment to rise up in the occasion, they outrightly threw out the occasion without making a forceful pronouncement.
“We can create the opportunity for them to be reskilled, to be empowered so they can play a more meaningful role in the society. So, that way, the cycle continues because they can see the need to pay back,” he saidSpeaking on the activities of the alumni association, Mr Audu said the association has been involved in rendering various assistance to the school, trying to make sure that excellence is maintained in the college.
He commended Kaduna State governor, Nasir Elrufai, who was also a student of the school for giving priority to education in the state.
