..... Assures Government Support To Achieve Quality Education 

Kano State Commissioner of Education Dr. Ali Haruna Makoda has charged Proprietors of Private Schools to strictly adhere to the laid down rules and regulations governing private schools operations.

In a statement signed by the Director Public Enlightenment of the Ministry, Balarabe Abdullahi Kiru, said Dr. Ali Makoda made the call while receiving the executive members of National Association of Proprietors of Private Schools, Kano Chapter who paid a courtesy visit in his office.

Makoda emphasized that there is need for private schools owners to work closely with State Private and Voluntary Schools Institutions Board to achieve quality education.

While responding to the issue of multi taxation of private schools, the commissioner pledged to put hands together and come out with proper solutions to address the problem.

He revealed out that the administration of Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf is developing new policies aimed at providing conducive learning environment both for public and private institutions across the state.

" The Executive Governor of Kano State Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf is the Governor of passion about education and that was even what brought the declaration of State of Emergency on Education " the Commissioner asserted.

Ali Haruna explained that the state government has so far implemented many programmes on education which include the distribution of learning and instructional materials to over 800,000 public schools, distribution of 789, 000 school uniforms to pupils in 7,092 public schools across the 44 local government areas and distribution of infrastructure to improve learning and teaching condition.

The Commissioner further reiterated government commitment to work with any individual or group of people who have the intention to offer contributions towards enhancing the state education sector.

Earlier, the state chairman National Association of Proprietors of Private Schools, Kano Chapter Alhaji Imam Ahmed Zubair said they were at the Commissioner's office to register their support and solidarity to the government in recognition of its commitment in repositioning the state education sector.

He said the association is the umbrella body and apex association of private schools owners in Nigeria created to promote the welfare of Proprietors of Private Schools to deliver quality education in Nigeria.

Alhaji Imam Zubair commended Kano State Governor Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf for his historic budget allocation to the education sector with 29.75% for 2024 and 31.5% for 2025 respectively, describing the effort as record ever put in place for educational development in Kano.

The chairman then highlighted to the commissioner some of the areas of intervention which required government support to improve the performance of private schools in the state.

According to the chairman, some of these demands include the provision of permanent office accomodation, addressing the issue of multi taxation of private schools by harmonizing the payment through single authority and developing policy for private schools operators on rent issues.
