The governor is determined to revive Kano’s education system, which was once exemplary but has suffered due to neglect.
“My administration is committed to making education a top priority and creating a lasting legacy for future generations. Over 4.7 million pupils are forced to sit on bare floors to learn, and 400 schools have only one teacher for all classes and subjects,” he said.
Gov. Yusuf also emphasized the severe lack of basic teaching tools, inadequate resources, and outdated equipment faced by teachers and students. Additionally, many schools suffer from insufficient water and sanitation facilities.
