The Kano State Government has approved N1.1 billion for procurement of free school uniforms for primary one pupils in the state to encourage enrolment.
This is contained in a statement issued by Sunusi Dawakin-Tofa, the spokesman of Gov. Abba Yusuf on Friday in Kano.
According to the statement, providing free school uniforms will boost enrollment, improve retention, and ensure equal opportunity.
He emphasised that education is a right, not a privilege, and this initiative will ease the burden on parents.
“The move aims to attract out-of-school children into classrooms and complements other education reforms, aligning with the government’s comprehensive education agenda”.( NAN) ( www.nannews.ng)
