Aisha Bala Mohammed, Bauchi State First Lady has asked parents to pay more emphasis to the enrolment of the girl-child into both Western and Islamic schools to guarantee their future.
The First Lady made the call when she visited the venue of the ongoing National Quranic Recitation Competition currently holding in Bauchi.
She said to achieve a greater enrollment of girl-child into schools, teachers, on the other hand, ought to redouble their efforts towards providing a sound education to their students coupled with inculcating accepted societal values to win the trust of parents and guardians alike.
Aisha called on the participants to offer more prayer for the nation in view of the rising national challenges confronting the country ahead of the 2023 general elections.
