The Kano Government says it needs over N60 billion to provide furniture for 4.5 million primary and secondary school pupils who learn sitting on the bare floor in the state.
The state Commissioner of Education Umar Haruna revealed this while speaking to newsmen, Thursday in his office, emphasizing that over 80 percent of schools were left to decay by the former administration.
Umar who lamented the decay in the education sector in Kano blamed the situation on the immediate past Governor Abdullahi Ganduje said hundreds of boarding schools are now occupied by reptiles and Rabbits.
“The former Governor Ganduje destroyed a very good system he inherited from his predecessor Rabiu Kwankwaso by closing down some schools which has contributed to killing the structures.”
He explained that Kano has ten thousand schools with seven million students adding that out of that number, 4.5 million students receive lessons sitting on the ground.
Haruna commended the initiatives of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf for declaring a state of Emergency on Education and improving its budget.
He expressed the readiness of the state government to revive the sector and make Kano a citadel of learning.
The Kano Education Commissioner added that plans are on by the state government to implement the Education policy beginning with Government College Kano through the provisions of instructional materials and renovation of dilapidated infrastructure.
