Thank you for walking with FALUC in 2025 💛
This year, every step we took in Maiduguri, Jere and other crisis-affected communities was made possible because you chose to stand with us.
Thank you for believing in FALUC and in the futures of the children and youth we serve.
It’s about priority. The government never cared about education. I’ve been to more than 60 schools. There isn’t any security that a school deserves. Students are practically living and sleeping in the wild. Now go to government houses and see how the parents of those kidnapped children wearing police or military clothes are ordered to safeguard those stealing heavens. Why should anyone be surprised? A school doesn’t deserve 1 or 2 security men. It needs a minimum of 15. You can’t find that in any government schools in Nigeria, and they will rather lose elections than take care of education. Failed state? Absolutely!
