Kano Govt to Sanction Parents of Children Roaming Around During School Hours

Kano State Government has read a riot act to parents of children found roaming streets during school hours across the state.

It insists that all children and their teachers must be in school before 8 am on school days.

Education Commissioner, Umar Doguwa issuing the warning at a stakeholder meeting on girl education in Kano, said parents of children not in schools during school hours would be sanctioned.

Already, Doguwa said the Abbas administration has made education free for the over five million students while providing means of transport to take them to and back from schools.

The Commissioner also said that 29.7 percent of the 2024 budget was to be spent on the education sector.

So the component that is remaining now is the student aspect and we decided to reach out to the parents to know the importance of education, and their commitment to allow their children to be in school in good time.

If we find a child coming late to school, we will invite the parents, explain the situation to them, and tell them we want them (children) to come by 8:00 am.

And if they don’t heed the call we will do the needful.

The way we take measures on teachers who come to school late, so we will take measures on children who come to school late.

Parents must realize they have a responsibility to send their children (both male and female) to school.

On her part, the Secretary of, the High-Level Women Association, HILWA, Hajia Ladidi Fagge, traced the high number of out-of-school girls to the closure of the boarding schools in the state.

He noted that most of the girls who were attending the boarding schools are now engaged in street hawking.

She however solicited the support of the parents, especially women, to complement the government’s efforts by ensuring that their children go to school.
