Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, has initiated an investigation into the activities of the Universal Basic Education Board, FCT UBEB due to dissatisfaction with its management.<\/p>\n

Wike made this announcement during a visit from Dr Hamid Boboyi, Executive Chairman of the Universal Basic Education Commission, UBEC, in Abuja on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The minister expressed concerns about the lack of comprehensive briefings on the board\u2019s activities and the need for transparency.<\/p>\n

He emphasised the importance of renovating schools, stating, \u201cYou cannot talk about quality education when the schools are in bad shape.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wike also highlighted the issue of qualified teachers and the necessity for suitable physical structures for children to learn.<\/p>\n

He urged UBEC to intensify efforts to mobilise out-of-school children roaming the streets nationwide.<\/p>\n

Wike also addressed the commission\u2019s land request, stipulating that land allocation would now require an agreement demonstrating financial capacity for immediate development and a timeline for completion.<\/p>\n

He said failure to meet these terms would result in the FCTA reclaiming the land and allocating it to capable institutions.<\/p>\n

Wike said the decision was prompted by instances of institutions holding land allocations for 15-20 years without development, building shanties that attracted criminals, or selling the land instead of developing it.<\/p>\n
