Stakeholders Seek Better Deal For Education
Stakeholders have called on the three tiers government to immediately reform public education to serve its function as the bedrock of Nigeria’s development.
Osai Ojigho of Amnesty International sought to safeguard against violation of the rights of the youth to freedom, empowerment, and education.
Dedicating the event to those whose rights had been violated for speaking out against injustice, she reminded the government that there were over 10 million out-of-school children across the federation.
The conflict in the North East, Ojigho pointed out, was an offshoot of government’s failure to provide free and qualitative education for kids in the region.
