According to Masari, these are part of his administration’s effort towards enhancing the teaching and learning processes in the state.

He said that the enrolment of primary school pupils had increased from one million to more than 2.2 million between 2015 and this year.

He said this was achieved because of his administration’s strategies in the education sector.
