Education is about the only hope for societal development. It is only through the instrument of Education the phenomenon of "DEVELOPMENT" becomes realistic. Controversies avails as to what Education connotes, perhaps due to background, orientation and or milieu of who defines it.
Education therefore lacks universal definition contextually. However, it also has universality of meaning conceptually hence, key words like learning, knowledge, study, workshop, classrooms, teacher, instructor, lecturer to mention just a few. In essence, from which ever viewpoint one sees it, it all involves getting to know the unknowns and or upgrading the already known.
Whatever and in which ever way one takes it, be it formal or informal education, one thing that is cannot be sacrificed is the comfortability of the study zone. In other words, "INFRASTRUCTURE" to put it in our term, "good class rooms, libraries, laboratories and an atmosphere devoid of distractions".
Since the inception of Aminu Bello Masari in Katsina State as Governor, his promises fulfilled in Education sector so far is better than what he met on ground. It is a fact and very obvious his records on education infrastructural development in Katsina State is second to none. Under the past administration nearly all schools were abandoned. There were reported cases of school buildings and class rooms turning to habitants for bats and birds. GGSS kankara was a good example of that.
It is no longer a news that today, over 2000 blocks of Classrooms had been renovated across Katsina State, this cut across the 34 Local Government Areas and 463 Wards. Aside equipping them with furnitures, learning implements amongst many. To rap up this, there is no single ward that this project had not affected. It interest us here to note that development is a process and must begin and start somewhere. Are you in doubt? Then read about how the United State of America (USA) started, it was not robust as the Masari's administration started and indeed it is an applaud for Masari.
Subsequent publications will unravel other giant strides in the Education Sector. Revelations of what really was and is in education will be made available to the Katsina indigenes.
The reason for all these restoration in Education and other Sectors could be captured in the Mission of the Katsina State Governor even before his assumption into office. He said "my mission is to restore Katsina to its glorious days when Agriculture and Education were the pride of our people"....WHAT A LEADER WITH MISSION AND PURPOSE!
A leader that believes in sustainable agenda for development. A leader that believes in the future is what Katsina, Nigeria and the World needs.
