Muslims oppose Return of Public Schools To Missionaries

The Muslim community in ondo state has faulted the decision of Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu returning some public schools to Faith Based Organizations (FBOs)

At a news briefing in Akure , the Ondo state capital, the Chairman, League of Imams and Alfas ,Sheikh Ahmad Aladesawe described the move as barbaric, unprogressive and posing serious danger to the growth of education in the state.

Represented by the secretary of the league and Chief Imam of Supare Akoko, Alhaji Abdulrasheed Akerele, Sheik Aladesawe alleged that the development was tantamount to giving out public property to empower some individuals in the FBOs.

The cleric also alleged that such action would deny Muslim children access to such schools.

Sheik Aladesawe disclosed that the Muslim Community would seek legal action if the state government fails to rescind its decision.
