A non-governmental organization, Centre for Information Technology and Development (CITAD), has called for stakeholders’ support in implementation of recommendation to overhaul education sector in Bauchi State.
CITAD Senior Programme Cordinator, Isah Garba, made the appeal in Bauchi during stakeholders’ meeting organized by CITAD in collaboration with USAID on the strategy development for monitoring the implementation of the recommendation of Task Force Committed to overhaul education sector in Bauchi state.
It could be recalled that Governor Mohammed Abubakar declared a state of emergency on education sector due to its dilapidated state and set up a committee on how to improve access and quality in education sector.
Garba said that collective responsibility of all stakeholders would contribute to the success of education in the state.
According to him, the government cannot do it alone.
“We all must support the government to achieve its objectives of setting up the task force committee so that the recommendation will not be thrown out.
“We all know that Nigerian government both at the state and federal levels are good in setting up Committee but the implementation process might be faulty; so we need to assist Bauchi government to implement this recommendation”, he said.
Garba, who commended the state government effort in setting up the committee, said that it demonstrated the present administration commitment to adress the problem of education sector.
