“We have no reason to be poor, looking back on where we are coming from, where we have been, why we are facing infrastructural decay, a lack of quality and comprehensive education, as well as lack of health facilities. We are not a cursed country, but a blessed.

“We have children of school age who are out of school. The only way to promote education is to get all governors, including opposition governors involved in the school-feeding programme. Please, take it seriously.

“We should not measure the children as statistics. We should measure their return to classrooms as our achievement. We should see economic growth interms of value and empowerment. We should set up a committee to look into the methods. I am ready to invest in school feeding”.

-President Bola Ahmed Tinubu At Meeting With APC Governors.
