Mr. Mataimaki Tom Maiyashi, the convener of APC Kyari, a faction of the All Progressive Congress in Kaduna state has condemned governor Nasir el-Rufai for his government policies.
In an interview with New Telegraph, he said what el-Rufai is acting like an ignorant governor.
He said this when asked if el-Rufai had "scratched the surface" of Kaduna's problems as concerns education.
"What el-Rufai is doing is uninformed," he said, and added that he's not sorry for his statement.
"Education issues should not be scratched on the surface, to use your expression. Because education is the tool for development; the implication of not having sound education on the society is colossal. Many of our children who graduate from primary schools, even those who are able to read peripherally, they relapse into a state of illiteracy over a period of time. Look at the number of dropouts from schools, the number is huge.
"And look at those who are unable to pass their school certificate examinations and they are in the job market. These are the same people that our political elites use as thugs. What I am trying to say is that this thing is so deep and fundamental that it is not an issue of scratching on the surface. We cannot take this lightly because the consequence is going to consume all of us.
