Femi Gbajabiamila, speaker of the house of representatives, says there is a need to amend the constitution to increase the educational qualification for election into the office of the president.

, speaker of the house of representatives, says there is a need to amend the constitution to increase the educational qualification for election into the office of the president.

Section 131 of the 1999 constitution states that “A person shall be qualified for election to the office of the President if he has been educated up to at least School Certificate level or its equivalent”. “As we have reduced the age for eligibility to contest those offices, so also, we should increase the minimum educational requirement. It will be another step in reforming our electoral system and providing strong leadership for the country.”

Speaking on reforming the educational sector, Gbajabiamila said tertiary institutions need to develop a new understanding of the “changing nature of work and the future of employment and allow this new understanding to inform the nature of instruction and the substance of the education they provide”.

femigbaja SpeakerGbaja nassnigeria GarShehu It is what a correct thinking nation should do, it is what a group of sensible people should implement without even a hitch or fight When things like this isn’t easily talked about or implemented in nation, then you can know the nation is full of folks without “correct thinking”

femigbaja SpeakerGbaja nassnigeria GarShehu Good leadership isn't about paper education which can be easily bought at any Nigerian tertiary institution, or those glorified secondary schools called universities,

NOlawuwo femigbaja SpeakerGbaja nassnigeria GarShehu How has Osinbajo performed?

femigbaja SpeakerGbaja nassnigeria GarShehu I wonder when he realised this. I hope he won't support Tinubu's ambition until he's sure of his educational qualifications.

femigbaja SpeakerGbaja nassnigeria GarShehu At whatever level you raise it, is useless and ineffective without the Torah - the Old Testament. The Old Testament is ineffectuve equally on the Northerners without teaching Arabic language. This is to expose hypocrites from both sides.

femigbaja SpeakerGbaja nassnigeria GarShehu Why e no question him master qualifications?

femigbaja SpeakerGbaja nassnigeria GarShehu Go and tell that to the God's, now you dey sleep finish
