The Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has vowed to end hawking by school-age children in the state.
Adeleke made this known while receiving the report of the recently held three-day education summit from the organizing committee, National Daily Newspaper gathered.
Also, a report published in the bulletin of state Ministry of Information and Public Enlightenment on Wednesday, stated that Adeleke “decried the rate at which children of school age are used for street hawking, promising to put a stop to it.
Lamenting the poor state of education in Osun, the governor, who noted many sectors in the state needed urgent intervention, said his administration supported the summit for experts to discuss the issues and come up with solutions to the challenges facing the education sector.
Governor Adeleke , however, promised to study the report and implement the recommendations therein to resuscitate the education sector from its current poor state.
Expressing happiness over the success of the summit, Governor Adeleke commended the organizers for their sacrifices and selfless service in ensuring a successful event.
