The declaration was made by Adamawa PDP chairman, Abdulrahman Bobboi during a meeting with journalists.

“By the time PDP takes over in 2019, we will declare free education for all the time PDP takes over in 2019 we will declare free education for all,” Bobboi said according to Daily Sun.

“Illiteracy is a major problem to any society and this government has made it difficult for Nigerians to have three square meals talk more of paying school fees. We are working with our economic team to develop models to jack up the revenue profile of the state when we take over.

“During our time, we built about 12 universities in northern Nigeria; the Almajiri schools were built all over the country, all these were done to eradicate ignorance.

“It was a PDP government that established Adamawa State University, and during that time, the people of Adamawa enjoyed free education,” he added.

Bobboi also accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of wreaking havoc on Nigeria’s economy.
