Speaking with journalists at the 12th convocation ceremony,he said with proper funding the institution can be the best in the world 

"During my tenure as governor, I withdrew my sons from a private school (Olashore International school) to SPEB public primary school in Ekiti,an initiative of my then administration. I won't condemn people who send their children to study abroad but I believe the best could be gotten here in Nigeria. My sons graduated from Nigerian universities. I want others to emulate me."

"Apart from the fact that my none of my children attented schools abroad, I have never travelled out of the country for medicare." 

According to him,the only way to improve the education standard of the country is for the children of public office holders to experience what children of ordinary Nigerians are experiencing in school in the country.

When stressed further,he said " Even though the views of people like us might not be popular,that is because we say the truth and do what we say. We won't stop telling them what they do not like to hear and of such is that they should invest in Nigeria education sector. "
