for Youth, Sports and Special Duties in Edo State, tells DIRISU YAKUBU why the coalition he heads wants the World Bank to evaluate the impact of the $75m loan given to the Godwin Obaseki-led government to develop the education sectorrecently called on the World Bank to visit Edo State for physical inspection of schools in the state, what prompted that?
We are inviting them for an on-the-spot assessment of Edo schools, especially in the rural areas, because despite the announcement of significant funding for the revamping of education in Edo State, there has been little to no visible impact or improvement in the state’s educational system. It is our aim that it would provide a first-hand experience of the deplorable conditions of schools, particularly in rural areas.
The Obaseki-led government has been lauded for its education policy known as EdoBESST, what are your reservations? EdoBESST has received praise from the World Bank and other global institutions but it is imperative to critically assess its impact, especially regarding infrastructure and resource allocation. Adequate classrooms, chairs and tables are indispensable for effective education delivery, and unfortunately, these necessities are lacking in many schools across Edo State. Moreover, it is vital to address the significant disparity between urban and rural areas when implementing educational reforms.
