The federal government will support any partnership that addresses literacy and educational challenges including the problem of out of school children and girl child education in Nigeria, according to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.
Mr Osinbajo stated this on Thursday when he received on a courtesy visit to the Presidential Villa, a delegation from Google Global Services in the United States.
“All of that fits into our education agenda which partly aims at addressing the out of school children and the girl child education issues.” “With the collaboration that we have with the Ministry of Education, we have now integrated some of Google’s curriculum on online safety into the school’s curriculum. So, we will be reaching 56 million students in Nigeria this year.”
