She was speaking when the Minister of Education, Prof Tahir Mamman and his management team paid her a visit in her office at the State House Abuja yesterday.

In a statement by her media aide, Busola Kukoyi, the first lady said as a teacher herself, it was important to improve on the profession and the practitioners in order to improve the quality of teaching and learning.

“I will join you to champion the drive for more teachers in the country. They are very important to the teaching outcomes we get,” she said.

Senator Tinubu commended the minister for approving the change of name from Second Chance School to Alternative High School for Girls, saying the new name was more dignifying.

“Education is the way to grow as a nation. We know insecurity is there, discouraging girl child education. But we will not be intimidated from giving this generation what they deserve, quality education.

“Governors should be encouraged to adopt the Alternative High School for Girls. Once UBEC builds one in the State, they should build more.

 

“These girls should be given the opportunity to fulfill their dreams. How will they fill on their resume, I went to Second Chance School, people will ask, what did you do?,” she said.

 

The first lady also called the attention of the minister to the need for adult literacy schools and re-introduction of technical colleges for the children who could not get into tertiary institutions due to poor academic strength.

 

In his remarks, the minister said his ministry was introducing skills acquisition from primary school level.

 

“The issue of out of school children is getting our due attention. Only about 25% of our youth get into tertiary institutions. We have to see to the others that are just there. We must get them well trained in their chosen skills,” he said.
