 Meta to end end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages Meta is ending end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages, a feature the company says will no longer be available after May 8, 2026.

 Africans Urged To Find Solution To Challenges In  Education Sector



Experts in the Education sector say solutions to the multifaceted education challenges of African countries can only be genuinely addressed by Africans themselves if the sector is to experience growth. 


This was their submission in a bid to address the challenges facing education within the continent at a summit held in Abeokuta, Ogun State.


The experts, led by the Vice Chancellor of Covenant University, Ogun State, Prof. Timothy Anake, stated that almost three-quarter of the global out-of-school population is in Central and Southern Asia with 34% and sub-Sahara Africa standing with 39%.


The experts noted that findings  Globally show that there are more boys out of school when compared to girls: 139 million boys to 133 million girls, a trend they noted started in 2007.


The education experts, however, commended the new Nigerian Education Curriculum which they say is good for reshaping the educational sector in the country.


The experts also emphasized that no single actor can achieve sustainable and inclusive education alone, stressing that a multi-sectoral collaboration is necessary.


They further noted that governments should provide enabling policies and funding,with a further call on  the private sector to offer technological solutions and workplace pathways for the sector. 


The theme of the summit Towards 2030: Advancing Sustainable and Inclusive Education in African Schools is another wake up call for African leaders to ensure that education is given its right place of relevance in policy formulation if the continent is to grow and provide solutions to challenges facing the continent.
