The Kogi State Government has given an assurance that its priority to provide the people with quality education will be sustained.

Towards achieving the goal, Governor Yahaya Bello’s led administration is set to launch Education Revolution with the provision of quality infrastructure in schools and recruitment of teachers.

The Commissioner for Education, Wemi Jones, disclosed this while briefing journalists after a tour of facilities at the new GYB Model Science Secondary School, Adankolo in Lokoja, by the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Kogi State Council.

He also hinted that the model science schools were scattered across the state as part of the legacy edifices of the Yahaya Bello administration.

He announced the state government’s plan to employ 3,979 teachers, adding that 3,100 had passed the qualifying test. He assured that the exercise would be continuous.

Chairman Kogi NUJ, Adeiza Momo Jimoh, commended the state government for its achievements in the education sector, noting with dissatisfaction the government’s failure to carry the press along, thus keeping the citizens in the dark.
