It represents Nigeria’s pledge to turn a dark chapter in our nation’s history into a story of resilience, dignity, and hope.


“The education of Nigerian children is beyond partisan politics. Mr President has demonstrated true statesmanship by ensuring that even those studying in institutions owned by his fiercest critics are not deprived of their education and rehabilitation,” Alausa stated.
