” We inherited a decayed system in the education sector, and this is what we are trying to fix. So, we are visiting all the dilapidated schools, even though we have their records, but this is what we have been doing day by day to bring the real situation of the schools we met in Kano State,” he said.

He expressed dismay over the manner some residents are turning Murtala Muhammad Senior Secondary School into a refuse dumping site, stressing that the government is going to take appropriate action to control the situation.
