The Emir of Zazzau in Kaduna State, Ahmed Bamalli, has advocated for a state of emergency on education in Zazzau Emirate as a robust approach to strengthen learning and skills acquisition in the area.
He made the declaration at the public presentation of four books and celebration of excellence of former Director-General, National Teachers’ Institute, Aminu-Ladan Sharehu, as Professor of Public Administration in Zaria.
The royal father noted all was not well with education in Zazzau Emirate following the backwardness recorded in education within the in the recent years.
Bamalli who applauded the effort of both federal and state governments in providing infrastructural development to the education sector, urged illustrious sons of the emirate to complement the efforts.
He, therefore, expressed concern over how the emirate was left far behind in terms of catchment requirements and admission, especially at the university.
The former Director-General, NTI Kaduna, and the celebrator Sharehu, said the money realised from the public presentation would be donated to the schools within the emirate.
