At the 2025 Ministerial Briefing on Thursday in Abuja, Mr Alausa described Nigeria’s education crisis as a major obstacle to national development.

He said 45 million Nigerians are “learning poor,” unable to read age-appropriate texts and that the country has the second-highest number of out-of-school children worldwide.
