The governor said, “This school has produced many great men, this ceremony is meant to mark a great milestone.

 

“We have renovated over 600 schools.I don’t believe in mega schools, though I am not condemning it, at least the one in Owo is useful for the polytechnic. I believe in the renovation of schools. We have touched over 600 schools in Ondo State

 

“We are committed to tackling infrastructural deficit in Ondo State as we have done much, but funding is a big problem but we will continue to do our best.”
