Masari decries plan to scrap the Almajiri System
Katsina state governor, Aminu Bello Masari on Tuesady rejected calls for the scrapping of Almajiri Islamic Education System practiced in the Northern part of Nigeria.
Masari who made the declaration while receiving audience, members of the board of directors of the Universal Basic education, UBEC, in the North West Region, led by Senator Abubakar Sadiq, observed that repositioning basic education in the North West is in tandem with the principles of his pet dream’ ‘’Restoration Agenda.’’
”The Almajiri education system requires improved infrastructure and their conditions while in the care of their Malams. Also there must be improved sanitation and clean environment, ensuring skill acquisition and improved living conditions.’’He further added that more qualified teachers drawn from Western subjects like English and mathematics should also be deployed, so that products from the Almajiri education can compete favourably and be self reliant.
