  • Summary

  • The United Nations Children’s Fund has partnered with Jigawa State and 14 other Nigerian states to domesticate the Safe School Policy, amid increasing concerns over the safety of educational institutions in the country. The Education Specialist at UNICEF’s Kano Field Office, Mr. Muttaka Muktar, highlighted the alarming number of school closures due to security challenges. He says non-state actors have destroyed more than 910 schools, and at least 1,500 have been forced to close down across Nigeria. He added that attacks on schools have intensified in recent years, particularly in the North-East, where the abduction of students has become a recurring issue.
