Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Abia State Governor, Alex Otti has said that several places used for examination malpractices, code-named Miracle Centres have been closed down by his administration in most parts of the State.<\/p>\n

He also said his administration is doing everything to provide conducive learning environment for Abia children.<\/p>\n

The Governor said this on Wednesday in Umuahia while launching the Abia State educational innovative program tagged AbiaFirst.<\/p>\n

He said his administration has tackled the deterioration that characterized Abia State government\u2019s education sector during the past administrations.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am, however glad that several steps have been taken in the last twenty months to address the malaise of exam malpractices in most parts of the State, leading to the closure of several outlets designated as miracle centres,\u201d Otti said.<\/p>\n

He pointed that several educational initiatives like improved teachers\u2019 welfare, recruitment of five thousand teachers and rehabilitation of schools are geared towards producing a future generation of leaders for the State.<\/p>\n

Earlier in his welcome address, the Commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Elder Goodluck Ubochi, said the ABIAFIRST initiative aims at re-imagining Abia\u2019s education system and focuses on quality teaching, improving basic education, reforming secondary schools, integrating digital learning, and enhancing career education and skills development.<\/p>\n
