Obasanjo, who was represented by his Chief of Staff, Deacon Victor Durodola, said there was need for total change in the country’s systems, including the education system.
“Unless we come back to arrest our value system and bring it to a path of rectitude, then we cannot change the educational system for good.”
“But when we reorder the society, our value system is reordered and we reform all our weak institutions, everything will work well; the education system will also work well. It is because our system has crumbled that the education system is affected, it is a reflection of what the system has been all over the country.
“Once we are able to reform ourselves, make our institutions to be strong, then the education system will be strong”, he added.
He added that: “It deserves to be treated with some forms of iron hand and that is the only way we can take care of it otherwise it will just continue like a wild fire and we need to arrest it”.
