THE Federal Government has been called upon
to as a matter of urgency declare a state of
emergency on the education sector as
necessary measures to address the situation
and safe it from further collapse.
A retired Director of the Federal Capital
Territory (FCT) administration, Alhaji Sagir
Hamisu stated this while addressing newsmen
shortly after the 3rd year graduation ceremony
of the FAMAKS International schools Kaduna.
According to Alhaji Hamisu who is the founder
of the school and a 2015 governorship aspirant
for Zamfara State on the platform of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the
government is trying her best but more needs
to be done in the education sector to meet
international standard.
He also attributed the lack of quality education
to being a contributory factor to the
insurgencies being experienced across the
country, stressing that once the problems of
education is adequately addressed and
students are more engaged in schools than at
home occasioned by recurring strike actions, it
will be better off for the country.
He said, “If somebody is educated even
minimally, he can be trained to acquire skills
and will be gainfully employed. So when it
comes to total quality education, then you are
talking about excellent but less start from the
basic education. Once we have that, I can
assure you that there would be no insurgency.
“With education, you open the mind, create
employment, create good citizens, you have
good governance and every citizens will know
his rights and privileges. And so there is no
doubt that education should not only be the
priority of any government or aspirant but
mandatory for any government to give to his
citizens” he stressed.____________________________Visit. www.facebook.com/donpressnews for more educational news.. Don't forget to like the page so that our new post will be delivered into your inbox
