The Federal Government has decried the rate of out-of-school children in Nigeria, promising to take action to ensure they return to school to get the education they deserve.

The government’s position was made known in the keynote address delivered by the Minister of State for Education, Hon. Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba, at the National Campaign on Out-of-School Children in Birnin Kebbi, Kebbi State on Thursday.

In a statement by the Federal Ministry of Education, Nwajiuba was quoted as saying that “the high number of out of school children is inimical to the growth and development of any Nation”. He stated that the Federal Ministry of Education is determined to ensure that all children of school age who are out of school are returned and retained to complete their Basic and secondary education and possibly transit to tertiary institutions.
