By AKILU ABDULLAHI
THIS year’s Kano Forum (Inuwar jama’ar Kano) has distributed materials worth
N11,485,604 made up of school furniture, textbooks, science equipment,
building materials, home management equipment and teaching aids.
Chairman Board of Trustees of the Forum, Alhaji Magaji Dambatta, made the
disclosure at the 12th distribution ceremony of educational support
materials to local institutions of learning in the state.
During a speech at the ceremony, held at Farm Centre, Kano, Thursday,
Dambatta emphasised that, in addition, “we are providing some specially
required equipment for special education school, Tudun Maliki.”
He said because of the peculiar problems of the Tudun Maliki school, the
forum has consistently being giving support materials to it, adding, “I
should emphasise that our contribution to this school is by no means
sufficient to meet its needs.”
“It is therefore important to invite stakeholders and philanthropists to
extend helping hand to the school as well as to many of our educational
institutions.”
In his address, Kano state education commissioner, Dr. Tijjani Muhammad
Naniya, represented by the director, Private Schools, Tajudeen Gambo, said
Kano state government would continue to support Kano Forum in all its
activities.
Dr. Naniya then appealed to the beneficiaries to make judicious use of the
materials which included furniture, textbooks and computer sets.
