incentives to encourage private sector investment in education.
Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed, who
made this known in a statement issued to newsmen, pointed out that it is
crucial to secure education in the country as this remained vital for
the economic progress and attainment of the social development indices
in the country.
Ahmed however revealed that since President Muhammadu Buhari has signed
the safe schools declaration in December 2019, her ministry has been
proactive in staging stakeholder engagements on financing safe schools
and creating safe learning environments.
