The United States Agency for International Development, USAID, has distributed nine million books to 7,900 Schools in Sokoto and Bauchi States, through the recently concluded 5-year Northern Education Initiative Plus, NEI Plus.
US Mission Nigeria, reports that NEI Plus, increased access to basic education to over 269,000 out-of-school children — half of whom are girls and improved reading outcomes for close to a million children in Bauchi and Sokoto States.
Piloted in the Northern States in Hausa, Fresh Angle International understands that the materials which were originally designed for Primary levels 1 to 3, were expanded to include Igbo and Yoruba versions for schools in the South as well as English.
