Plateau Governor's Commitment to Revamping Public Education: A Holistic Approach to Transforming the Sector

The Executive Governor of Plateau State, His Excellency, Barr. Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang, has reaffirmed his administration's commitment to revamping public schools across the state. During a courtesy visit to the Executive Secretary of the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC), Hajiya Aisha Garba, Governor Mutfwang emphasized the importance of providing quality education that nurtures and empowers young, underprivileged children to become the leaders of tomorrow.



Governor Mutfwang stressed that unless public schools are adequately equipped with critical infrastructure, trained personnel, and sufficient instructional materials, the future of education remains uncertain. He highlighted the need for deliberate and strategic interventions to promote enrollment and retention in public schools by creating conducive teaching and learning environments. The Governor's commitment to improving public education is driven by his conviction that every child deserves access to quality education, regardless of their background.

The Governor noted that his administration is implementing measures to curb the rising number of out-of-school children in Plateau State. He emphasized the importance of strengthening basic education to reverse this trend and ensure that all children have access to quality education. The Governor's administration is working to address the root causes of this challenge, including poverty, lack of infrastructure, and inadequate teaching personnel.

Governor Mutfwang described UBEC as a key national institution that deserves focused support and collaboration to bridge the education gap in the country. He disclosed that his administration is aggressively addressing issues around the quality of teaching personnel, infrastructure deficit, and the availability of learning materials to enhance the cognitive development of schoolchildren. The Governor's commitment to collaboration with UBEC is driven by his desire to leverage the Commission's expertise and resources to improve public education in Plateau State.

The Governor also highlighted his administration's commitment to child nutrition, ensuring that pupils receive the appropriate diet to support learning and development. He emphasized the importance of giving the education sector the attention it deserves and making a meaningful impact. The Governor's administration is taking a holistic approach to education, recognizing that a child's cognitive, emotional, and physical development are all interconnected.

The Governor's visit to UBEC demonstrates his administration's commitment to improving public education in Plateau State. With the support of UBEC and other stakeholders, the state government can work towards creating a more resilient basic education system that benefits all children, regardless of their background. The collaboration between the state government and UBEC is expected to have a positive impact on the education sector in Plateau State, and serves as a model for other states to follow. By prioritizing quality education and working together to address the challenges facing the sector, we can build a brighter future for our children and our nation.
