According to a World State report, Bello made the statement while on an unscheduled visit to Maryam Babangida Girls Science Secondary School, Bosso Minna.

"We've visited schools where animals would not like to live in the hostel and dogs wouldn't eat the food" being served students," the governor reportedly said.

He said students and teachers in such a system cannot be blamed for poor academic performance.

"It's unfair to blame students for failing external or final year examinations when they study in filthy environment and receive subpar instructions.

"It's also not right to blame teachers for poor performance without providing them tools to aid teaching."

Bello promised that his administration will improve the learning and teaching conditions.
