Ondo Governor approved the payment of WAEC Fees

Ondo State Government has approved the payment of School Certificate Examination Fees otherwise known as WAEC Fees for students in public schools in the state.

This followed the approval of a memo sent to the governor, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN by the State Ministry of Education, Science and Technology and signed by the signed by the Permanent Secretary, Mrs Lola Amuda. The memo was dated March 17, 2021.

In approving the memo the following day, Governor Akeredolu further instructed that the sum be “paid directly to WAEC to be receipted for”.

Recall that at a public function Akure early this year, Governor Akeredolu promised to take the burden of the payment of WAEC fees off parents to cushion the effect of hardship imposed by COVID-19.

The Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Donald Ojogo confirmed that a total number 25,736 students in Public Secondary Schools across the state will benefit from the gesture.

He said, “the gesture by the State government was part of the determination of the Akeredolu led administration to bring joy and succour to parents in the State and alleviate the financial burden of parents in educating their children.

“Governor Akeredolu had during the first working day Prayer Meeting of the year with the State Public Service, made a pronouncement that the State would resume payment of WAEC Fees in all Public Secondary Schools in the State.

“This is a promise kept; and it’s not in any way, going to be politicised because our pupils deserve no such. It is in line with the commitment of the governor’s REDEEMED Agenda under which we have Educational Advancement and Human Development.”

Olubola Adeleye Foundation Acknowledges Teachers Contributions To Building Humanity, Awards Certificates To Ekiti Teachers

The selflessness of teachers in building and impacting the younger generation has again been acknowledged as a Non Governmental Organization ( NGO), Olubola Adeleye Foundation ( OAF), organized a training programme for teachers to celebrate and honour them for their commitment  in spite of all odds.

At the programme held in Ekiti for teachers by OAF, the Founder, Mrs. Adeleye said a lot of teachers are not motivated by the meagre sum paid to keep them at their respective places of work but are committed to building up the students because of their passion and as such, they must be appreciated for doing such a good job.

According to her, the gesture is OAF's way of giving back to the teachers. "What I usually do is to design beautiful certificates and present it to them to acknowledged their services and that goes a long way to boost their morale. It makes them feel good”, she stressed saying appreciating teachers is something that must be consciously done because nobody wants to be a teacher anymore.

She however enjoined the people to look for ways to support teachers even by donating Biro’s, Pencils or Rulers. “Let’s make the resources to be available for them to teach. We all know that when funds are released, somebody, somewhere might just decide to sit on it”, she added saying her passion is geared towards quality education, poverty and hunger alleviation for the people.
