The Federal Government has launched a new Communication Strategy (2025–2027) for the education sector, designed to strengthen transparency, accountability, and public trust in ongoing reforms under the Renewed Hope Agenda.
This came as the government revealed about 577,000 girls are receiving scholarships and nearly 100,000 empowered with life skills under the Adolescent Girls Initiative for Learning and Empowerment (AGILE) Project.
Minister of Education, Dr. Olatunji Alausa, who spoke at the official launch on Monday in Abuja, described communication as a central pillar of reform and national development, stressing that education “is not only about classrooms and textbooks but about shaping the destiny of our children and the prosperity of our nation.”
He commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for prioritising education, noting that the administration has approved the highest budgetary allocation to the sector in Nigeria’s history, leading to upgrades in infrastructure, teacher training, and the launch of the Nigeria Education Sector Renewal Initiative, NESRI.
The Minister of State for Education Prof Suwaiba Ahmad, in her remarks said the unveiling of the new strategy, was not a document to be shelved but a blueprint for telling Nigeria’s education story with clarity, credibility, and consistency.
They stressed that the Communication Strategy is anchored on four pillars: visibility, coordination, engagement, and resilience, explaining that it will ensure that every achievement in the sector is heard, seen, and felt nationwide.
