Education Secretariat Absorbs FCT Schools From Religious Indoctrination

By Joyce Remi-Babayeju

The Federal Capital Territory, Education Secretariat of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) has absorbed students in FCT schools from religious indoctrination through a misleading and malicious voice note circulating in Hausa, Language.

In a statement issued by Kabiru Musa
Head, Information/ PR Unit , Education Secretariat,
Federal Capital Territory Administration, the Secretariat distanced itself from such indoctrinated and said,”We wish to irrevocably and categorically state that the claims in the said audio are false, baseless, and deliberately misleading.” According to the statement investigations carried out by the Education Secretariat revealed that the Areas and School locations mentioned in the voice note are not in the Federal Capital Territory, but they are in Mararaba, Nasarawa, and nowhere near the official map of the FCT.
The Schools mentioned are
GSS Maraba. GSS Bakin Ado. GJSS Kurunduma,
Aunty Alice School where a Teacher from one of the School claimed that some students were forced to accept another faith against their wish.

The statement read, “FCT Schools are strictly secular institutions where Students of all faiths(Christians & Muslims)co-exist peacefully. The FCT Administration guarantees the freedom of worship and upholds the rights of every child to learn in an environment free from religious discrimination or compulsion.”
“Our Teachers and School Administrators are highly trained professionals who operate strictly within the bounds of professional ethics and codes of conduct. Teachers are dedicated to nurturing students into disciplined, responsible citizens without bias or prejudice.”

“Under the focused and visionary leadership of the Honourable Minister of the FCT, Barr. Ezenwo Nyesom Wike,(CON), Education in the FCT has been placed on the front burner.”
“The ongoing massive renovation, reconstruction, and accelerated rehabilitation of Schools, coupled with the provision of infrastructure and ICT facilities across all Six Area Councils, is a testament to this unwavering commitment.”
“The FCT Education Secretariat, under the watchful supervision of the Mandate Secretary for Education, Dr. Danlami Hayyo and his Management Team have continued to implement a robust monitoring and feedback mechanism to ensure that FCT Schools remain Centers of Excellence, discipline, and inclusiveness.”
“Let it be clearly stated that such divisive and harmful narratives aimed at destabilizing our Education System and Creating religious tension will not be tolerated.”
“The FCTA reserves the right to take legal and administrative action against individuals or groups propagating such falsehoods against its Schools or Territory .”
It therefore urges the Public, media, and stakeholders to disregard the viral voice note in its entirety and to rely solely on verified information from official FCTA sources.
