The
Kwara state Commissioner for Education and Human Capital Development Alhaji
Musa Yeketi has bought a hummer School bus belonging to a government secondary
school under his supervision at a giveaway price.
OrijoReporter
learnt that the hummer was donated to Okelele Secondary School Ilorin by the
administration of Dr. Bukola Saraki. Over time, it developed a brain box
problems and was abandoned in the school premises.
It
later caught the attention of Commissioner for Education and Human Capital
Development, Alhaji Musa Yeketi. And he bought the bus having approached the
school with an offer of about a hundred thousand naira.
According
to findings, the market price of a brand new hummer bus is around N5m.
OrijoReporter
was told that the principal simply identified as Mallam Saka was not favourably
disposed to the transaction. He fought against it but succumbed following
report reaching him.
It was
said that the principal heard it from good authority that Alhaji Yeketi
threatened to sanction him if he continued to prove stubborn.
OrijoReporter
gathered that before the bus was sold to the commissioner, on several
occasions, Mallam Saka had complained loudly that the consistent borrowing of
the bus by ministry of education was damaging the vehicle.
Sources
said several times, the education ministry wrote to the school to lend its bus
to staff of the ministry for both official and non-official assignments within
and outside the state.
It
would be recalled that Okelele Secondary School was one of the four
comprehensive schools renovated during Dr. Bukola Saraki’s eight years
administration. Others were Government Secondary School, Bishop Smith Memorial
College, and Government High School, all in Ilorin metropolis.
