Nigeria, 3rd February 2010 - Education starts from the cradle. Experts say catching children young with quality education remains a veritable tool to lifelong development. Chika Mefor reports that a one day stakeholder's meeting held recently in Abuja was aimed at emphasising early childhood education. The future of a nation's socio-economic and political wellbeing lies with the quality of children's education because they are the future leaders. If they have a shaky foundation when it comes to education, it will surely affect their lives when they are adults and in turn affect the nation. Many children in Nigeria and Africa have no opportunity to experience the much needed early childhood education. Why? Some at early stage have to help cater for the need of the family. Ify is a good example of such. She is seven years and lives with her mother and two siblings. They live in a remote part of a village in Niger State. Ify attends school and is in primary tw...

Pre-school age corresponds to a critical period of rapid physical, cognitive and psychosocial development of the child. The quality and intensity of care, nutrition and stimulation a child receives during this period determines to a large extent the level of physical and cognitive development a child can attain. Though appreciable progress has been made in early childhood care and education in the past four years due to government policy requiring every public school to have a pre-primary school linkage, the proportion of children enrolled in pre-primary Early Childhood Care Centres still remains low at approximately 2.3 million children.

The caregivers of these centres are generally unqualified: about 85 per cent do not possess basic qualifications and more than half have no formal education. Another major issue in Nigeria’s early childhood care and development is the poor state of the i...

Militants have killed an estimated 40 pupils in a pre-dawn attack on a Nigerian school, setting ablaze a locked hostel then shooting and slitting the throats of those who escaped through windows. Survivors said some of the victims, aged 11 to 18, had been burned alive by the attackers,thought to be members of Islamist extremist group Boko Haram, which is opposed to "western-style" education. Teachers who fled through the bush said around 40 pupils died in the assault, which began at around 2am on Tuesday in the town of Buni Yadi in the north-eastern state of Yobe. Soldiers were still gathering corpses so could not give an exact number of dead, a military spokesman said. The school is about 45 miles south of Damaturu, Yobe's capital. Communications in the area are limited because extremists last year destroyed the local mobile-phone tower. Adamu Garba, a teacher, said the attackers first set ablaze the school's administrative block, then moved to the hostels...
