Adeyeye said “The educational structures that gave rise to the institutions such as ‘standard six, grade one, grade two and grade three had already been phased out.

“During admission process, the best students go to the universities, second best students go to the polytechnics while others go to colleges of education and such students are expected to be teachers and teach best students.

“I have my private fears. I don’t believe God will solve Nigeria’s problem, we are to make it work. If you want to see the future of any society, visit their schools.
