Incumbent Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu has admitted failing as a minister.
He stated that he could not solve several challenges he ought to have solved despite being the longest serving minister of education.
The Minister highlighted that, from out-of-school children which has increased during his time in office to challenges of ASUU and other challenges bedeviling the tertiary education system, he could not provide the needed solution.
The Minister who spoke at the 66th National Council on Education (NCE) in Abuja, on Thursday, also accused the states ministries of education of adding to the factors that aided his failure as a Minister.
Adamu also called for the establishment of two Ministries of education-ministry of basic education and ministry of higher education, demanding the establishment of Federal Ministry of Skill and Entrepreneurship to address the challenges facing the youths.
