He also promised that no member of staff would be deprived of any of their entitlements.

“Engr. Seyi Makinde’s government will dedicate nothing less than 10 per cent of the budget to education.

“All you need do as members of staff of this important agency is to give your best to achieve maximum progress.

“The present administration has shown from the start that it is going to be more action than talk.

“Your welfare and other needed input from the government will not elude you. Just be dedicated and do all toward the betterment of academic excellence in the state,” he said.

Responding on behalf of members of staff, the Acting Executive Secretary, Mr Olusanjo Adeniyi, pledged that SUBEB staff would work in tandem with government’s policies.

Adeniran was later conducted around the board’s promises by the acting Executive Secretary and other management staff.
