    ''What are we implementing?  Nigeria is good at formulating policies. We formulate very good policies, and for other countries, but implementation is the problem. How are we standardizing our education policy issues? We want our children to access quality qualityeducation, there is no way they can access quality education without a good quality assurance policy,'' the commissioner stated.

    Prof. Adelabu noted that academic qualifications alone were not enough to become a class teacher, saying, "Having an NCE or BSc. is not enough to become a class teacher. A cultist cannot become a class teacher. Not less than five were wrongly given appointment letters; we have withdrawn them.''
