This is her statement in full:
I have never been a fan of second term in office for elected officials. But talking of Governor Babajide Sanwoolu, I believe he has done reasonably well in the area of education. Of course, there is still a sizeable room for improvement. I am a teacher, certified by the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN), and any government that pays attention to education naturally earns my support. Eko EXCEL is a worthy testimony to what the Sanwo-Olu administration is doing in the area of education development. Our children surely deserve qualitative education, because they are indeed our future.
