Considering that the students were evaluated before being admitted to official schools, he claimed that this is a kind of testimony for both the teachers and the government.

“This is a big plus for us in Oyo State. It shows that BESDA is working for us. Though we do not have the actual figure yet, some non-formal learning centres we visited in certain local governments affirmed that some of their learners have been mainstreamed”, Adeniran boasted.

According to Dr. Adeniran, the Oyo State Government wants to see the majority of students receiving non-formal education admitted into elementary schools.
