Mathew Kukah, famous Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese,
lamented the overwhelming effects of insecurity on the education sector in
Nigeria.
Kukah disclosed this while giving his keynote address at the
Parents Summit of the 2023 Education Week in Edo State.
He described havoc caused by Bandits, terrorists and other
tormentors of Nigeria’s security as forces of darkness.
Accordingly, all Nigerians must be resilient to crush the
forces perpetuating insecurity across the Country.
“As we can see, our country is now being ravaged and
threatened by the forces of darkness, those who have said no to humanity and
those who have said no to education, whether they manifest themselves in the
murderous and destructive excesses of Boko Haram or banditry,” he said.
The United Nations Children’s Fund, UNICEF had in April last
year disclosed that 11,536 schools in Nigeria had been closed due to
insecurity.
Chibok, Dapchi, Kankara and other nationwide cases of
abductions have remained a reference to the state of insecurity in Nigeria.
