The Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) has emphasized that no Nigerian child should be denied access to quality education, regardless of their difficult circumstances. Executive Secretary Dr. Aisha Garba said this during the commissioning of a rehabilitated Alternative High School for Girls in Lagos, Nigeria. Garba highlighted the importance of alternative learning pathways, particularly for girls and young women who drop out of school due to pregnancy, early marriage, family responsibilities, or other challenging situations.
She stated that the school should not be seen merely as an infrastructure project, but as an opportunity for girls and young women to return to learning and acquire the skills needed to succeed in life. Garba urged the Agboju community to take ownership of the school, protect and maintain the facilities, and support the girls attending the institution.
