According to the document, the Dakar framework recommended governments to take lead in increasing financial commitments to EFA, with the EFA high-level steering committee proposing that 15 per cent to 20 percent of annual budgets be earmarked for education.
In 2011, the sector was allocated N393.8 billion — 9.3 per cent of the total budget while it got N468.3 billion — 9.86 per cent of the 2012 budget; N499.7 billion representing 10.1 per cent of the total 2013 budget; N494.7 billion – 10.5 per cent of the 2014 budget and N484.2billion – 10.7 per cent of the 2015 budget.
Asides the decaying infrastructure, the incessant strike actions embarked upon by workers is one of the evidence of the poor funding of the sector. It is the major factor for the continued closure of universities even after the federal government had declared that schools can reopen amid the COVID-19 pandemic.Reacting to the proposed budget, Adeola Egbedokun, a lecturer in OAU and the Branch Chairman of ASUU in the school, described the federal government as being insensitive to the concerns of the sector.
He added that the government should stop telling schools to look inwards, restating that a school is a knowledge-generating entity and not a revenue-generating venture.
This government does not have education on it's front burner.

With education budget at its lowest and the system poised to steal more than 50%, what is the fate of public school system.

You can’t give what you don’t have . You don’t expect a primary school dropout to care about education. It keeps the youths uneducated and make them easily manipulated
