💡 Kaduna State Government Empowers 40,000 Girls with Life Skills Education
In a landmark move, over 40,000 adolescent girls in Kaduna State have benefited from a new life skills education programme rolled out across public secondary schools. The initiative, part of a broader youth empowerment push, equips young girls with practical competencies such as leadership, financial literacy, communication, and problem-solving beyond core academics.
Officials say the programme will soon be backed by an Executive Bill to make life skills a compulsory part of the secondary school curriculum. This reform signals Kaduna’s commitment to boosting education relevance and preparing students for real-world challenges.
