PROPOSED UBEC FUND CUTS
1. The FG is planning to cut 2020 UBEC Funds from N111.7bn to N51.1bn
The N60bn cut will increase the already 10.1mn out of school children in Nigeria
How will this PROPOSED UBEC Fund cut IMPACT child Education in Nigeria? THREAD @DrAhmadLawan@GEMReport2. While UBEC funds are tied to revenue performance, the FG must be REALISTIC with THREATS facing child Education in post #COVID19 era
The proposed 55% cut will not help Nigeria invest in her Human capital development thereby hampering her economic growth. @fimiletoks@HamzyCODE
