First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu

First Lady Oluremi Tinubu has called for stronger protection of schools, teachers and students from attacks, stressing that every child deserves to learn in a safe and secure environment.

Tinubu made the call while marking the International Day to Protect Education from Attack, using the occasion to draw attention to the growing risks faced by learners and education workers in conflict and insecurity-affected communities.

She emphasised that schools must remain places where children can pursue knowledge, develop their abilities and prepare for the future without fear of violence.

According to her, attacks on educational institutions do more than disrupt academic activities, as they can undermine children’s confidence, destroy their hopes and deprive communities of opportunities for development.

The First Lady stressed the need for stronger collective action to protect educational facilities and ensure that teachers and students are not exposed to avoidable danger.

She noted that education plays a central role in shaping the future of the country, making the security of learning environments an issue of national importance.

Nigeria has faced various security challenges that have affected access to education in some parts of the country, with attacks, abductions and threats forcing schools to close or disrupting learning activities.

Such incidents have raised concerns about the safety of pupils, students, teachers and other education workers, particularly in vulnerable communities.

Tinubu called for sustained efforts to prevent attacks against schools while ensuring that children affected by insecurity are not permanently excluded from education.

She stressed that protecting education requires cooperation among government institutions, security agencies, communities, educators, parents and other stakeholders.

The First Lady also highlighted the broader consequences of denying children access to education, noting that prolonged disruption can affect their development and future economic opportunities.

She urged stakeholders to treat the protection of education as a shared responsibility and strengthen measures capable of keeping schools safe.

Beyond physical security, safe access to education also requires an environment where children can learn without intimidation, displacement or fear.

The First Lady’s message comes as Nigeria continues efforts to improve access to education while confronting security challenges in parts of the country.

She maintained that protecting children’s right to education is essential to preserving hope and building a more stable and prosperous Nigeria.
