Bad leaders are as a result of bad teachers-Dimeji Bankole

A former speaker,house of rep., Dimeji Bankole has that the future of the country is bleak due to bad teachers. In his word “at present, to gain admission into universities and Polytechnics, students must achieve pass marks at or above the cut-off points of 160-180. “On the same scale of measurement, the cut-off point for admission to a College of Education is 130. This means that the system is pre-disposed to select poorer academic performers to train as teachers for our children''.

He said this at the 2016 Registry Day at the Federal College of Education,FCE,Abuja.
