President Bola Tinubu says he is dedicated to ensuring that children who are not currently enrolled in school return to the classroom, while also providing them with the skills they need to succeed in the future.
He made this disclosure during a discussion with French President Emmanuel Macron at the Palais des Élysée, Tinubu emphasised his government’s dedication to prioritizing education for children in Nigeria.
The President said, “In order to bridge the gap for some who are of age, and have been out of school for a while, we will encourage skills development.
“The insecurity in some parts of the country makes it hard for children to return to school, but we are gradually re-populating the classrooms. And we need skills development to bridge the gaps.
“With some more efforts, we will be able to get some level of stability. We had very good harvest this year. And as soon as more farmers can go back to the farm, we will have more stability in harvest and supply.”
