Governor Abiodun said this will promote a healthy competition among the students and entrench academic discipline.

“Excellence and good discipline were the priority with healthy competitions amongst the schools back then.

“This is what the present administration is working to restore and we believe together we can bring the lost glory of our schools back. We are going to restore discipline, excellence and good morals to our schools.

“Results of our students will now be made public to foster more efforts and healthy competitions, security in schools will be heightened, school management and standards will take a new shape henceforth,” she said.

Soyombo said Governor Dapo Abiodun-led administration is working assiduously to ensure that quality education is guaranteed for the students of the state.
