Niger State Governor, Dr Babangida Aliyu, has asked the Acting Minister of Education, Mr. Nyeson Wike, to be mindful of his utterances and stop dabbling into the affairs of other states pointing out that ''education administration is not for riff raffs.''
.
Wike had made some comments about the state of affairs in the education sector in Niger State which the governor said he should not have made.
.
Speaking while signing into law the state University of Education bill at Government House Minna, yesterday, Aliyu warned Wike not to comment on matters he was not familiar with so as not to cause further problems in the education sector.
.
''I do not know when he got into education. Education is not for riff raffs and he should, therefore steer clear of Niger State.
.
''If he (Wike) can fight the governor of his state (Rivers) he cannot fight other governors and so, he should take his time,'' Governor Aliyu warned.
.
Aliyu had explained that the University of Education, to be located at the present site of the state College of Education, Minna, would provide avenue for training of teachers in secondary schools in the state and the entire northern Nigeria where there was currently none of such institution.
Nigeria's politics is full of drama even than our Nollywood industry! Hmmmmm
