This is in order to tackle Nigeria’s out-of-school children’s crisis.

The Chief Executive Officer of IA-Foundation, Ibironke Adeagbo, made the announcement in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) Sunday in Abuja.

The Universal Basic Education Commission says it will commence Open Schooling Programme across the 36 states of the federation by July, as part of strategy to reduce the number of Out-of-School children in the country.

Pernille Ironside, Deputy Representative, UNICEF Nigeria, stated this on Wednesday in Kaduna, at the opening of a two-day Northern Nigeria Traditional Leaders Conference on Out-of-School Children.
