The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Osun State, Ademola Adeleke has revealed why he returned to school amidst the controversy surrounding his educational qualifications.
Recall Adeleke’s educational qualifications, especially his Senior Secondary School Certificate, have been a major campaign weapon for his political opponents, who claimed that the lawmaker did not attend secondary school.
Speaking during the governorship debate hosted by Channels Television on Sunday, Adeleke promised to declare a state of emergency on education if he becomes governor.
Giving his reasons, Senator Ademola noted that he went back to school where there were controversies surrounding his educational qualification.
The PDP governorship added that he went back to school to be a role model for the young people, even the adults to prove that it’s never too late to be educated.
He said: “As soon as I become Governor of Osun State, I’ll declare a state of emergency on education.
“You know why? Because I went back to school when there were controversies surrounding my educational qualifications.
“I went back to school to be a role model for the young people, even the adults to prove that it’s never too late to be educated.
“I went back there very boldly and studied with people that should be my grandchildren. Today, I thank God that I’m more educated and ready to rule Osun State.”
