“There is every need to upgrade our public schools in the Constituency. When you look at some of these schools, you will know what am talking about.
“Public schools are not given proper attention because it is for the children of nobody. Education is a right of every citizen, hence the need for representatives to give them necessary attention. But in my Constituency, reverse is the case.
“When you look into my seven points agenda, Education is one of them. By God’s grace, if elected into office I will ensure that all the schools in Chikun/Kajuru Federal Constituency are upgraded to modern facilities so that we can be able to graduate best brains in Kaduna and the country at large. Ekene said.
