The Kano State Government says it will reward two primary school head teachers found in their offices during vacation.
They were preparing for the 2024/2025 academic session when Governor Abba Kabir paid unscheduled visits to the schools.
Yusuf instantly announced the gesture during the unscheduled visits to Tsanyawa Central and Model Primary Schools, where he met the headmasters on their duty posts.
A statement issued by the Governor’s spokesperson, Sanusi Bature, said the governor was impressed by the headmasters’ commitment to duty demonstrated by being in office while schools are on vacation.
It quoted Yusuf as saying that after consulting with the Commissioner of Education, the government would determine a suitable reward to boost the morale of the head teachers and inspire others to emulate them.
Yusuf further said that as part of the ongoing State of Emergency on Education, the two schools visited would be prioritised to create an improved environment for teaching and learning.
