Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed has called for the integration of Arabic education into Nigeria’s education system to ensure graduates of Arabic-speaking universities receive equal recognition and opportunities.
The Governor made the call while receiving leaders of Nigerian students studying in Saudi Arabian universities during a courtesy visit at the Government House, Bauchi.
The delegation was led by the Director of the Centre for Sunnah Studies in Africa, Dr. Shuaibu Idris, who said the visit was to appreciate Governor Mohammed’s commitment to education and brief him on the Centre’s activities, particularly its support for Bauchi State students studying in Saudi Arabia.
Receiving the delegation, the Governor expressed concern over what he describes as the gradual decline of Northern Nigeria’s rich Arabic educational heritage, noting that the region has long maintained strong educational, religious, and cultural ties with the Arab world.
He said integrating Arabic education into the national curriculum would provide graduates with equal opportunities and strengthen educational development across the country.
The Governor also reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to reviving the abandoned Arabic College in Alkaleri to expand access to quality Arabic education and to preserve the region’s long-standing educational heritage.
Representatives of the Nigerian students studying in Saudi Arabian universities thanked Governor Mohammed for his continued support and encouragement.
They pledged to apply the knowledge and experience acquired abroad to the development of Bauchi State and Nigeria upon the completion of their studies.
