Governor Zulum Inaugurates Summit To Reform Almajiri Education System<\/p>\n

The Governor of Borno State, Babagana Zulum, has inaugurated a summit aimed at reforming the Almajiri education system, a traditional Islamic method of learning widely obtained across states in northern Nigeria.<\/p>\n

The event held at the conference hall of Musa Usman Secretariat was graced by education stakeholders, religious leaders, and community advocates to discuss innovative strategies to integrate the Almajiri system with basic formal education.<\/p>\n

\n

The summit provided a platform for participants to discuss issues, share insights and propose actionable solutions to the challenges faced by the Almajiri education system.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Addressing the gathering, Governor Zulum emphasised the need to address the root causes of insecurity through the provision of education for all citizens of Borno. The governor stressed that improper teaching of Islamic studies has contributed to the emergence of Boko Haram insurgents in the state.<\/p>\n

He noted that to curtail the adverse effects associated with Almajiri education; Borno State Government has established the Arabic and Tsangaya Education Board, introducing a unified curriculum for Tsangaya and Islamic schools.<\/p>\n

Zulum also stated that the reform includes establishing Higher Islamic Colleges that cater specifically to Almajiri children, blending religious and secular curricula and equipping them with skills vital for their personal development and future employment opportunities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Tsangaya Reform is a great development and will give Almajiri a better chance in life, particularly the introduction of integrating western education, vocational, numeracy and literacy skills into the centres, which are also described as Almajiri and Islamic schools,\u201d Zulum said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cDistinguished guests and esteemed educationists, government\u2019s intention was to streamline the informal and formal education systems to quality integrated Tsangaya school for admission into colleges and universities.\u201d<\/p>\n
