10 billion has been paid for ransom between January & June 2021 according to @sbmintelligence. 💔 Sadly, kidnapping in Nigeria has become a lucrative enterprise. What is worse is that we also have to deal with school kidnappings threatening education 🎥 https://t.co/rUJHL82xih
In many parts of the country, kidnapping appears to have become big business. In Nigeria's north, villages are raided sometimes weekly & victims rounded up in large numbers with ransom demands ranging btwn N50 to N500M.
How can we justify billions of Naira budgeted for defence?
Now is the time for education leaders to step up investment in education & increase enrollment to schools, especially for girls.
we must ensure adequate financing for education & protect education budget post pandemic.
Education must be accessible to all without discrimination.
As of March 31, 2020, Nigeria’s debt was at 28.6 trillion Naira. As the country addresses this debt burden, funding to social sectors, especially education, is paying the price.
Lack of support for education affects development issues including health, poverty & economic growth.
The advent of the #COVID19 pandemic has not only revealed the poor state of infrastructure and facilities in the health sector of Nigeria but has also revealed the reality of the dilapidation and poor funding of the education sector.

One of the core objectives of the project is to promote transparency & efficient management of State budgets for the extractive sector, as well as track and monitor sector reform performance and impacts on the welfare of the citizens especially at the community level.

The project also seeks to broaden citizens’ participation in the implementation of Nigeria extractives industry transparency initiative @nigeriaeiti & the #OGP process, and advocate improved corporate governance in operations & the management of human rights in these communities.
CODE is implementing the Power-of-Voices, fair-for-All project in 6 oil producing states in Nigeria in partnership with @oxfaminnigeria. Through this project, we will strengthen community voices & increase awareness on the socioeconomic costs of challenges within the extractives.
It's imperative that youths in Nigeria have a basic grasp & understanding of these processes as the future of our country rests on them. If you reside within any of these locations & interested in being a part of the project, then signup to - https://t.co/sBynSTqoMA for more info

This Thursday, Nadi Henney a field volunteer with @TFTFoundation, will share her experience working in rural communities & IDPs on #GBV & #COVID19 on our Facebook Livestream.
Imagine a young girl whose family was forced to leave her home town due to Boko Haram insurgency. Now an internally displaced person(IDP) she no longer has access to quality education in the refugee camp. To worsen matters, her former school has been converted to a military base.
