In this report, Justina Asishana (Jasishana) analyses how the Niger State government has tried to bridge the digital gap during the pandemic and if the efforts worked. NigerStateNG nigerstateSDGs ICFJ

Sadia said she had forgotten everything she was taught and was grateful for the one week tutorial classes they had before they wrote their final examinations.

While Rosemary Sunday and Fausat Akerele go to different private schools, Jamila Gabriel and Abigail Godfrey go to Nkangbe Primary School in Bosso local government area. The report states that of these, 50 percent , reside in urban areas. For the population with access to data, the proportion of those with access to data is skewed towards high socio-economic households and urban households. This is as an overwhelming majority are children from wealthier backgrounds, who already have a learning advantage over children from economically disadvantaged homes.

Bringing these two together, the digital divide has exacerbated learning disparities among these children and created a huge gap between the education of the children. Meeting these girls separately, the reporter observed that Rosemary and Fausat could identify Whatsapp and Facebook. Rosemary could also identify Zoom. Abigail and Jamila could not identify these apps because, according to them, they have neither used nor seen their parents using them.

Isah expressed optimism that the radio programme made a lot of impact stating that the Board went overboard to ensure that the programmes are designed for the students according to their curriculum and the lectures were delivered by selected teachers. The Niger State radio e-learning programme was targeted at all students and the programme was designed following the curriculum of the students; currently, the state government said that it could not assessed the number of students who listened to the programme but a review is being conducted by the Reading and Numeracy Activity project.
