The Governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, has warned the heads of government-owned primary and secondary schools to desist from charging illegal fees.

Gov. Ajimobi made the warning meeting the executive members of the All Nigeria Confederation of Principals of Secondary Schools (ANCOPSS) at his office in Ibadan on January 8, 2014, Wednesday.

He reminded his guests of free education policy in the state, enjoined the school heads to avoid charging their students illegal fees but rather to work for their success in public examinations.

The Governor urged the teachers to put in their best to produce students who would be the best in learning and character.

He explained that with about 30 per cent allocated to the education sector in the 2014 budget, more funds would be available to transform it.

In her return, the ANCOPSS State President, Mrs. Funmilayo Ojoawo lauded the prevailing peace in the state, saying it had contributed immensely to the successes so far recorded by the present administration.

    “We thank God for the peace in Oyo State. It is a welcome development and we believe that Oyo of yesteryears that was known for hooliganism of the highest degree has now known peace,

    “This is a major prerequisite for meaningful development. Whatever the magic wands God has entrusted to our governor to bring peace to Oyo State is highly appreciated,” she said.

The ANCOPSS State President further asked the state government to ensure that secondary school teachers, who had been on Grade Level 16 for years, were promoted to Grade Level 17.

She also requested that serving principals be considered to fill the vacant posts of permanent  secretaries in the State Teaching Service Commission while  grants to schools should be increased.
