Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State, on Tuesday, launched a unified curriculum for Islamic schools on Tuesday, aiming to combat violent extremism and prevent youth radicalization by terrorist groups.
Governor Zulum highlighted the absence of a unified curriculum for Islamic schools in the state for “at least three to four decades,” calling it a “matter of great concern.” He linked this lack of standardization to the emergence of the Boko Haram insurgency, rooted in “misleading preaching.”
“Our Islamic schools have been operating without a unified curriculum for at least three to four decades and that is a matter of great concern to all of us.
