From Sani Muhammad Sani, Gusau
Zamfara State Governor Bello Matawalle has restated his administration’s commitment to providing quality education for children especially the girl-child.
Matawalle made this known yesterday in Gusau while hosting High-Level Women Advocates (HILWA) who visited him.
He said the education of children tops the list of priorities for his government, especially the enrolment of out-of-School children and equip them with sound and quality education at all levels.
He noted that the provision of quality female education is of greater value and benefit considering the roles they play in developing societies.

Matawalle also said educating a woman is just like educating the entire society, promising to create a more enabling environment for women to have access to quality education through the involvement of education-based non-governmental organisations.
He stressed that his administration would continue to welcome development partners that will advocate for more participation of women in education and the enrollment of girls in schools in the State.
Matawalle donated an 18-seater bus to the organisation and urged the members to continue with their crusade of mentoring women and girls in the education sector.
