mysql information_schema empty and not populating

Running WAMP localhost server With php 5.6.18 and MySQL 5.7.11

In project that im working on now i need to get some column data form information_schema.COLUMNS table, but information_schema DB is completely empty - 0 rows for every table in this DB

For additional information - I have like 10 differnet DB on this MySQL, some are imported some are made from scratch in phpmyadmin.
So im completely lost - tried to google but no luck.

Maybe i miss something essential and trivial like some configuration of MySQL?
