Honourable Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola last Friday blasted the Osun State Commissioner for Education, Oladoyin Bamisayemi for absent while he (Aregbesola) was commissioning projects donated by Huawei to a pubic school in the state.
Aregbesola last Friday commissioned some projects donated by the Global Information and Communications Technology company, Huawei, to Ogedengbe School of Science, Ilesa, Osun State, which include toilet, water supply, and laboratory, all aimed at creating an enabling environment for learning.
The Interior minister blasted the commissioner for sending aide to represent him knowing he will be present at the program.
While registering his anger, Aregbesola said, in no condition will the commissioner of education absent at commissioning of projects akin to his ministry while a minister from the same political party came from Abuja for.
He said, “Before I will commission this project, I must say this because it is disrespectful and a sign of unseriousness. I will be blamed for it if I keep mute because I am an elder.
“A minister came from Abuja to a state where our party is ruling to commission project for the ministry of education and the commissioner sent his Personal Assistance.
“This is really bad. Things shouldn’t have to go in this way. A minister from the same party…”
He, however, lauded the company for investing in the Nigerian education system.
Present at the programme, the Speaker of State House of Assembly, Hon. Timothy Owoeye, All Progressive Congress (APC), Secretary, Alhaji Rasak Salinsile and stakeholder in Ilesha APC.
