Under the leadership of Governor Mai Mala Buni, Yobe State has witnessed significant strides in education, thanks in part to the tireless efforts of the Commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Prof. Abba Idris. The state government’s commitment to improving the education sector is evident in the comprehensive action plan developed by the Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education.
The state government has launched awareness campaigns to increase enrollment and promote education among children, ensuring that every child has access to quality education. Additionally, existing schools are being renovated, and new ones are being constructed to provide a conducive learning environment that fosters academic excellence. The government has also embarked on the construction of mega schools, providing state-of-the-art facilities that will enhance the learning experience for students.
Furthermore, the state government is recruiting teachers, including the recent recruitment of 4,000 teachers, and implementing capacity-building programs to enhance teacher quality. This initiative will not only improve the quality of education but also reduce the teacher-student ratio, creating a more effective learning environment. The government has also introduced the STEMA program, which aims to promote science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education in the state.
The state government has also implemented a free education policy, making it possible for students to access quality education without financial burden. This policy has led to an increase in enrollment and a reduction in dropout rates. Moreover, the government has emphasized discipline in primary and secondary schools, promoting a culture of learning and respect for authority. Initiatives are also being put in place to promote inclusive education for disadvantaged groups, ensuring equal access to quality education for all.
These initiatives demonstrate Governor Buni’s administration’s commitment to education and improving the lives of Yobe State citizens. The education reform initiative is expected to have a positive impact on the state’s development and future generations.
