Education Crisis: Calls for Fundamental Change, Not Just Policy

The Federal Government has finally admitted to its poor management of the education sector. Recently, the Minister of Education acknowledged that the policy separating junior and senior secondary schools has failed to improve educational outcomes. This is evident in recent examination results. In 2024, the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) reported that only 38.32% of candidates passed English and Mathematics in the WASSCE. In 2025, only 32% passed the computer-based WASSCE. This poor performance has been consistent across major examinations over the past two years.

This admission is tragic because education is the most vital contributor to human capital development, which forms the foundation for growth and economic development of any society. We cannot overcome economic stagnation without prioritising education, healthcare, and job creation to lift millions of unemployed youths out of poverty. As successful Asian nations have demonstrated, educational excellence requires sustained investment in curriculum development, motivated teachers, and better learning environments.

Unfortunately, the government continues to neglect the sector. In the 2026 budget, education received only ₦3.52 trillion, just 6.17% of total expenditure, down from 7.87% in 2025, and well below UNESCO’s recommended 15–20%. This low allocation indicates a failure to recognise education as a driver of sustained economic growth.

Education advocate, Mr Alex Onyia @winexviv , recently revealed that Nigeria failed to sponsor students to the International STEM and Mathematics Olympiads due to a lack of funding. It is heartbreaking that the government can sponsor hundreds to irrelevant international conferences yet fail to support its brightest students on the world stage.

The Minister’s admission reflects a broader failure of public leadership. The issue is not the JSS/SSS policy itself, but the lack of commitment to properly fund, manage, and deliver quality education.

In Anambra State, we proved that committed leadership can transform educational outcomes. Through effective funding, oversight, provision of laptops, generators, internet connectivity, and other learning aids, we turned the sector around. For example, our effort in providing computers across all secondary schools (public and private in the state) was recognised by HP Africa Head, who declared that Anambra had procured the largest number of laptops for school children of any subnational government in Africa.

For the future of our society, we must deliberately invest in education, healthcare, and job creation. As I have always said, failing to do the right things is equivalent to abusing society, and the society we abuse today will take its revenge on us and our children tomorrow.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

[oseni rufai @ruffydfire]

I just read the statement issued by Bayo Onanuga on behalf of the Presidency, which supposedly trying to put a defence for the Chief of staff, Gbajabiamila.

However, I think the Presidency's statement was clearly intended to shut down public scrutiny. Ironically, it has achieved the exact opposite. It answered some questions, but in doing so, it exposed even bigger ones.

Let us assume, for a moment, that every allegation against Prince Adeyemi is true. Even then, the statement leaves glaring gaps that no amount of rhetoric can paper over.

You are asking Nigerians to believe that one private citizen woke up one morning, invented a presidential agency, forged his own appointment, secured office space inside the Federal Secretariat, recruited staff, held meetings with diplomats, corresponded with government institutions, allegedly opened a CBN account through official channels, and if the official budget documents are anything to go by, the same "non-existent" agency found its way into the Appropriation Act with an allocation running into billions.

If that is truly what happened, then this is no longer just the story of an alleged fraudster. It is also the story of spectacular institutional failure. Either government systems were astonishingly easy to deceive, or there are questions that still have not been answered.

The statement conveniently glosses over the budget issue. That silence is deafening.

How does a fictitious agency appear in the national budget? Budget allocations do not descend from heaven. They pass through ministries, the Budget Office, executive review and legislative approval. Who introduced the line item? Who processed it? Who signed off on it? Who failed to ask whether the agency even existed?

Those are not political questions. They are governance questions.

Then there is the issue of the Federal Secretariat office. Offices inside government complexes are not roadside kiosks. How was the space obtained? Under whose authority? How long did it operate? Who interacted with the occupants? Who looked the other way?

Again, silence.

Then comes the most curious part of the story.

The Presidency says the very person allegedly identified as the link between Adeyemi and the purported appointment, Dolapo Babatunde Tanimola, had died in a hotel fire just five days before Adeyemi's arrest.

That is an extraordinary detail. Yet we are given almost nothing beyond it.

Was there an autopsy? Was there a coroner's inquest? What did investigators conclude about the fire? Were his electronic devices, communications and financial records examined? If he was central enough to be named in the statement, why is the public expected not to ask what became of the investigation into his death?

These are not conspiracy theories. They are the obvious questions any serious investigator would ask.

The Presidency wants Nigerians to focus exclusively on whether Adeyemi is an impostor. Fair enough. The courts will determine that.

But the Presidency cannot ask the public to ignore the conduct of government institutions in the same breath.

This is bigger than one man.

If the council was fake, explain how it entered the budget.

If the appointment was forged, explain how government systems repeatedly interacted with the supposed beneficiary.

If official channels were deceived, explain where the safeguards failed.

If there was no insider involvement, show the documentary trail that proves it.

Accountability does not begin and end with charging one individual. It also requires explaining how the machinery of government appeared to validate, accommodate or fail to detect what is now described as a complete fabrication.

The public deserves more than a carefully written press statement. It deserves answers backed by records, timelines and evidence.

Until those answers are provided, this matter is far from settled.

This kind of scandal will typically bring down an administration anywhere else in the world but Nigeria’s leadership think they can explain it away as just a minor oversight.

WHO KILLED DOLAPO BABATUNDE TANIMOLA?

The only man who could confirm how Adeyemi got a presidential appointment letter died in a hotel fire. Five days before Adeyemi was arrested.

Let me lay out the timeline exactly as the official documents show it.

October 10, 2025 — Adeyemi hosts foreign ambassadors at Wells Carlton Hotel, Asokoro. No Ministry of Foreign Affairs involvement. No government knowledge.

October 15 — Ministry of Foreign Affairs flags the meeting and writes to the NSA and Chief of Staff demanding clarification.

October 17 — Chief of Staff petitions the DSS and Police to investigate forgers and impostors.

October 22 — Dolapo Babatunde Tanimola, the man Adeyemi would later tell police helped him procure the forged presidential appointment letter, dies in a fire at Kachi Hotel in Utako, Abuja.

October 27 — Adeyemi is arrested at his Federal Secretariat office. In his statement to police, he names Tanimola as his key accomplice. Police go looking for Tanimola. They find a morgue.

There is no independent news report of a fire at Kachi Hotel in Utako in October 2025. Not from Channels. Not from Punch. Not from any Abuja news desk. The only place this fire exists in the public record is inside the Presidency's own statement about Tanimola's death. A man dies in a hotel fire in Abuja, and it generates zero media coverage at the time.

The police confirmed his death through four separate channels: interviews with his relatives, the hotel proprietor, records at the National Hospital, and burial confirmation from St Matthew's Anglican Church in Maitama. That is an unusually thorough verification process for a routine hotel fire.
