for the success of EFA
we would eradicate POVERTY,
wipe out IGNORANCE,
prevent DISEASES and
minimize SUPERSTITION
With EFA in place, it would be time for good GOVERNANCE, good HEALTH, there would be more of dialoguing instead of war, war, war! ...
Distinguished ladies and gentlemen, you are welcome to IBADAN for the one-day Sensitization Workshop on Education For All (EFA) organized by the South West Zone of the Civil Society Action Coalition on Education For All (CSACEFA). ... Thus, what started as a regional affair in 1955 in the West, 1958 in the East and to an extent 1962 in the North, was elevated to a national programme once again, in September 1999 when the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, launched the Universal Basic Education (UBE) as the Nigerian version of world-wide Education For All (EFA) Programme. ... To achieve the EFA goals, we need not only go into PARTNERSHIP, but it is imperative that we must have a strong and purposeful partnership to effect our quest for quality basic education and by extension overall development of the society. ... Indeed these are all important components of the EFA Programme and are issues for extensive and in depth discussion by all stakeholders.
The SIX GOALS of EFA provide a challenge for every community. ... The Federal Government should only provide the general guidelines on the EFA Programme. ... No doubt, the task is intimidating but I believe strongly that the participatory approach offers the surest way to success, because providing basic education must be seen as the ˇ§responsibility of allˇ¨.
