The Kaduna State Governor, Nasiru El-Rufai, has ordered the
operators of Almajiri schools to leave the state.
He spoke at the inauguration of the Kaduna State Child Protection
and Welfare Committee on Tuesday.
El-Rufai stated that he was confident and sure of the
propriety of his administration’s actions.
”My message to all those that have almajiris in Kaduna state, you have a choice to relocate otherwise sooner or later we will get you.”
He said the government had developed and approved a social
protection policy to support the most vulnerable.
“Politicians often get involved with their ‘slot mentality’,
and when we give them those slots, they don’t give them to the poorest.”
El-Rufai said the social investment office has been working
across the 24 local government areas to have a comprehensive social register of
the poorest.
The governor added that more than one million households in
Kaduna have been registered.
