The National Commission for Almajiri and Out-of-School Children Education (NCAOOSCE) has partnered with some Northern state commissioners of education to identify and enroll not less than 10,000 out-of-school children before September.
They stated this on Friday during the inauguration of the out-of-school children enrollment champions at the commission’s headquarters in Abuja.
The Executive Secretary of the commission, Mohammed Idris, said the support of President Bola Tinubu, has been instrumental in advancing efforts to eradicate the challenges faced by Almajiri and out-of-school children in Nigeria.
He says the commission is committed to ensuring that there will be no more street children, orphans, and out-of-school children sooner than later.
You will recall In May, the Minister of Education, Tahir Mamman,, said integrating Western Education with the Almajiri system was the solution for Northern out-of-school children.
