The governor said the Board will play a key role in helping to solidify educational transformation in the state.

“The inauguration of the Kwara State Education Trust Fund Board today is another strategic step towards providing the right environment for excellent learning outcomes for the Kwara child and to enable sustainable development in our state,” he said.

AbdulRazaq said the inauguration represents another phase in Kwara’s journey, touting some of the achievements of the administration in the sector, such as the massive school renewal projects and investments in training of teachers.

“A few months ago at an education event on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, I said that investing in education is the urgency of now. This notion has been the main driver of the many reforms we have carried out in the education sector,” he said.

“We have up-skilled and resourced thousands of teachers, and empowered tens of thousands of students with essential learning materials and more conducive school environments.

“Today, our teachers are reporting rapid improvements among their students. This growth is not only reported internally. Recently, Kwara passed the appraisal and was included in the World Bank’s Adolescent Girls Initiative for Learning and Empowerment programme. Our young girls are set to enjoy the benefits of Kwara AGILE.

“Our children are already posting great performances on the national stage. You will see that from the recent UBEC school debate, which Kwara won again after having won last year’s edition and are set to represent Nigeria in the Republic of Serbia in Europe for an international school debate.

“Notwithstanding these feats, we are not resting on our oars. If we are to deliver the promised dramatic improvements in learning outcomes in public schools for all children across Kwara State — and I promise you we will deliver — we need strong oversight, strategic direction, and resources that will ensure longevity.

“This is where the Kwara State Education Trust Fund Board comes in. A critical component of our Kwara State Education Transformation Agenda (KWETA), the board will mobilise resources to support infrastructural development and growth in our education sector. It will help us build stakeholder partnerships and ensure our educational investments are effective, efficient, and aligned with our goals,” AbdulRazaq added.

The statement also stated that, “The government, for its part, is to support the board with some N100m seed funds as it commences the assignment.”

Members of the board include Mallam Abdulhakeem Mustapha (SAN) (chairman); Oluwadamilola Amolegbe (executive decretary), Emir of Lafiagi, Alh. Mohammed Kudu-Kawu; permanent secretary, Ministry of Business Innovation and Technology, Mrs Kemi Mary Adeosun; Prof. Deborah Adekeye, and Iyinoluwa Aboyeji.

In his remarks, the board chairman, AbdulKareem Mustapha, commended the governor for finding them worthy to serve in that capacity.

He congratulated the administration for its huge investments in the education sector.
