Edo State Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu, disclosed this to State House correspondents at the end of the monthly meeting of the council presided over by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo.
All the 36 state governors are members of the council.
Shaibu said a finally decision of the matter would be taken at the next council meeting holding in November.
He said the council at its Thursday meeting received interim report from its ad-hoc committee on the revival of education in Nigeria.
