He vowed to improve their working conditions, remove all forms of bottle necks in paying their entitlement, bury percentage salary, make sure their wages conform with their promotional ethics and restore the lost dignity of teachers in the state.

He reminded them of the need to exercise their electoral franchise by voting out those who have turned them into beggars over the years.

Teachers’ training will also form the bedrock of his educational policy. According to the statement, Elder Leke Abejide said his love for education has been made obvious with his heavy investment in students WAEC and scholarship payments for the past 6 years, as he plans to sustain and even improve on that tempo when elected governor.

Elder Leke Abejide is not only the candidate of Africa Democratic party for the November election, but also a serving member of the House of Representatives, who has excelled tremendously in terms of service delivery and democratic dividend.
