The Executive Secretary, Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC), Aisha Garba, has identified the importance of collaboration, innovation, and strategic planning in delivering quality basic education.
She made this known in her address at the KADA EduPACT International Summit 2025 in Kaduna.
She noted that UBEC remains committed to building inclusive and sustainable education systems that empower learners, improve outcomes, and ensure no child is left behind.
She disclosed this in her address at the KADA EduPACT International Summit 2025 Wednesday, 9 July 2025 in Kaduna.
The Executive Secretary underscored UBEC’s role in strengthening Nigeria’s basic education system through collaborative and strategic actions.
Garba highlighted UBEC’s active partnership with the Kaduna State Government in addressing long-standing challenges in the education sector.
She commended the state’s notable progress in expanding access to education, particularly the significant reduction in the number of out-of-school children.
Garba further acknowledged the governor’s efforts and the impact of purposeful leadership in ensuring that more children—especially those from vulnerable backgrounds—are now enrolled and learning in school.
She also informed the summit participants of ongoing reforms being undertaken by UBEC to improve the effectiveness and responsiveness of its interventions nationwide.
“These reforms include focus on curriculum renewal, teacher capacity development, stronger accountability mechanisms, and the integration of technology in teaching and learning”, she stated.
