The federal government has reiterated its commitment to deploy all possible measures to protect schools and educational facilities across the country, describing the unwarranted attacks on schools and the abduction of students as unacceptable.
The government has also vowed to block all leakages of funds allocated to the education sector in order to make education affordable while improving the quality of the system.
Myschoolnews reports the Minister of State for Education, Dr Yusuf Sununu, stated this on Friday in Abuja at a news conference to herald the commemoration of the International Day to Protect Education from Attack.
While describing the attacks on schools as regrettable, Sununu said the current administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu would ensure that the Safe School Policy of the federal government is implemented in all its ramifications in order to guarantee safety in schools across the county.
He added that the Federal Ministry of Education, in partnership with relevant stakeholders, has already put in place various strategies to deal with these attacks.
The minister also said that the Federal Government had ratified the Safe School Declaration in December 2019 and developed a safe school policy in furtherance of upholding the right to education in emergencies.
