FG to Reclaim 157 Abandoned Almajiri Schools from Governors

The Federal Government is set to take over 157 abandoned Almajiri schools that were previously handed over to state governors during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan.

The Federal Government has announced plans to take over 157 abandoned Almajiri schools established during the presidency of Goodluck Jonathan. The schools, which were initially handed over to state governors for management, have been left vacant and in disrepair due to various reasons, including lack of funding and inadequate maintenance. According to the government, the decision to retake control of the schools is aimed at ensuring their safe and effective utilization, as well as providing educational opportunities to the students who were enrolled when the facilities were first established. The move is seen as a step towards reviving the education sector in these regions.
