The Chairman of the Board, Prof Fransisca Aladejana made this known yesterday, while receiving members of the State House of Assembly Committee on Education, Science and Technology on a familiarization visit to her office in Ado-Ekiti.

Reiterating the commitment of the Fayemi led administration to the provision of free qualitative basic education to all children of school age in the state, the SUBEB chairman said that no school would lag behind in the development move of the present administration.

She solicited the support of the state House of Assembly for the Board to achieve its mandate of revitalizing and repositioning the basic education sector in the state, stressing that all hands must be on deck towards ensuring the success of the ongoing reforms in the education sector.

She however expressed pleasure at the progress recorded so far, stressing that Fayemi had cleared the arrears of unpaid counterpart funds to UBEC, thus opening ways for the ongoing massive renovation of schools, provision of infrastructure including toilet facilities to schools as well as construction of perimeter fences to bolster security in public schools in the state.
