Niger State government has distributed kitchen utensils to boarding schools and classroom furniture.

The farmer Governor, Mohammed Umaru Bago made the symbolic distribution at the Educational Resource Centres, Minna.

Represented by the Secretary to the State Government, Alh. Abubakar Usman, the farmer Governor said the idea is to enhance school feeding initiative particularly to ensure that nutritious meals are prepared and served safely to the students.

He said the State government will extend the policy beyond improving school kitchens, to empowering students to take pride in their education and aspire to be the best in their chosen endeavours.

While enumerating the achievements recorded on education by his administration, farmer Governor Umaru Bago reiterated that his priority is to ensure access to quality education is provided from basic to tertiary level.

The farmer Governor reiterated his administration’s commitment to the timely payment of counterpart funds to support educational projects in the State.

According to him, “through our partnership with the World Bank Adolescent Girls Initiative for Learning and Empowerment (AGILE) programme, we intend to expand access to education for girl-child and renovate 534 schools across the state.

“Also, given the importance of technical and vocational education, the sum of N1.512 billion was earmarked for the complete renovation and equipping of technical schools in Suleja”.

He commended the Ministry for Basic and Secondary Education as well as all critical stakeholders for their support in revamping the education sector in the State, urging them not to relent in their efforts.

The Commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Dr. Hadiza Asabe Mohammed who said lack of essential kitchen utensils in boarding schools has been a major concern, affecting the wellbeing of students.

Dr. Asabe Mohammed commended the farmer Governor for the gesture in alignment with the enhanced school feeding programme.

The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education, Dr. Jonathan Wasa in his remarks, applauded Farmer Governor Umaru Bago for his political will to “work the talk” towards changing the negative education narrative in the State.
