Lesufi said they are turning things to ensure that the education system can prepare the children to compete with other children in any part of the world.
“If you can’t get education right will never get the country right, if you can’t get education right you will never get the skill right and will never get the economy right, and if we can’t get the economy right you will never get service delivery right,” stated the MEC.
