The Revitalizer of Mass Education Foundations
“A dynamic leader, a structural reformer, and a Governor who has brought a fierce, historic energy to the restoration of public education in Kano State. Confronting the enormous task of managing one of the nation’s largest student populations, Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf took immediate, audacious steps by dedicating a massive portion of the state’s resources to declaring a state of emergency on education. From the rapid distribution of millions of free instructional materials and uniforms to the structural rehabilitation of thousands of classrooms and the restoration of vital foreign scholarship schemes, his administration is restoring Kano’s historic pride as a center of learning. For his bold leadership, his swift actions against institutional decay, and his mass mobilization for youth empowerment, His Excellency Abba Kabir Yusuf is honorably inducted into the Education Hall of Fame.”
