The education of the girl-child is an important duty that all those concerned about planning a good future for the country must prioritise, President Muhammadu Buhari has said.

According to him, it is the collective duty of all to ensure that the mothers of today and tomorrow are educated, encouraged and empowered. “In particular, we are laying great emphasis on education of the girl–child. The high level of young girls who are out of school or unable to complete school due to socio-economic pressures is disturbing and must be addressed.

He enjoined the ministry to continue to champion and coordinate all matters relating to the plight of Nigerian women and the most vulnerable citizens, assuring Nigerian women of his continued support and determination to see that the Ministry delivers on this mandate. The President hailed the ministry and other relevant government agencies for positive contributions in reducing human trafficking and maternal mortality.
