In a bid to create more access to basic education in Nigeria, the Universal Basic Education Commission, UBEC and the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board, NCDMB, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding for the construction of additional Smart Schools in targeted rural communities across the country.
At the signing in Abuja, both the Executive Secretary of UBEC, Hamid Bobboyi, and the content development board’s Executive Secretary, Felix Ogbe, said the desire of President Bola Tinubu is to have no Nigerian child on the street for lack of adequate schooling infrastructure.
Only nineteen smart schools have taken off, out of the 37 established by UBEC in each state of the Federation, including the Federal capital Territory.
