The wife of former Senate President, Toyin Saraki, has tasked the incoming administration to reimagine education for the country and create a system that guarantees 12 years of uninterrupted learning for every child in the country.
Speaking at the National Moment on Basic and Secondary Education programme organised by the Malala Fund on Thursday in Abuja, Saraki stated that implementing 12 years of education using a progressive universalisation approach supports those who are most vulnerable to being school dropouts.
She explained that political will through legislation amendment and financial planning would significantly reduce the number of out-of-school children, currently put at 20 million in Nigeria.
