In line with the ongoing “whole school approach” in Niger State, the state governor, Alhaji Abubakar Sani Bello, has stated the resolve of his government not to compromise on the provision of qualitative and functional education in the state.
A statement by the chief press secretary, Jibrin Baba Ndace, in Minna yesterday, stated that the governor has resolved as a matter of deliberate policy to provide qualitative incentives for both teaching and learning in all its primary and secondary schools to boost the standard of education in the state.
The statement stated that the governor has resolved to continue to invest in education and improve on the standard , until the desired result is attained.
He recalled that, to make teaching more attractive, the state government recently approved N655.12million for the provision of furniture, electronics and textbooks to the Staff Quarters of the nine schools currently undergoing total overhaul in its ‘Whole School Rehabilitation Project”.
The governor also revealed that another N214.1million has been released for the procurement of science equipment, re-agents, textbooks in core subjects as well as solar-powered electricity plant to those schools.
“Whole School Rehabilitation Project would simultaneously encapsulate the free school uniform for the girl-child.”
