The Katsina State Governor, Umaru Dikko Radda, has revealed that terrorists and bandits have taken over a number of schools in 21 out of the 34 local government areas of the state.<\/p>\n

He spoke on Saturday at the sixth and seventh combined convocation of the Federal University Dutsinma.<\/p>\n

Radda, who described his administration\u2019s commitment to education development as unwavering, said the government had in the past six months spent about N2 billion for the rehabilitation of 361 schools and constructed 75 secondary schools under the AGILE programme.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cWe will focus on total education reform with the establishment of an Education Services Delivery Unit to ensure quality assurance and monitoring and evaluation of our education system.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy government will also conduct a comprehensive baseline assessment of all primary and secondary schools to ensure that our investments are data-driven and the objectives are clearly measured.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy administration has made out-of-school children a main priority and we will continue to work with all partners to reduce the numbers.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will also work with religious schools to provide academic tools for students in a bid to prepare them for the world ahead.<\/p>\n
