The Emir of Zazzau, Amb. Ahmad Bamali says the recurring collapse of the national grid is hampering the educational development of Nigeria.

“This ugly development is especially truncating e-learning in the country, and the earlier it is reversed, the better for education in the nation,” he further decried.

NAN reports that the emir spoke on Tuesday in Kaduna at the 2nd Annual National Conference, 2024, organised by the National Teachers’ Institute (NTI).

Represented by the District Head of Doka, Kaduna North Local Government Area, Alhaji Jibrin Magaji, Bamali also said, “E-facilitation is very important.

“It is very important as it facilitates effective e-learning and teaching in schools at all levels.”

The traditional ruler also listed other formidable challenges to education in Nigeria to include inadequate access to internet facilities.

“Another problem affecting education in Nigeria is the low digital literacy of the students and teachers across Nigeria, ”the emir added.

Bamali, however, opined that with plausible measures like sustained training and retraining, the obnoxious development could be redressed.

“Instructively, with what NTI is doing today, the unpalatable story of our education could be changed for the better, ”he said.

Bamali called for the reinvigoration of monitoring and evaluation, as well as ensuring sustainable policies.
