“Those reforms have included increased funding for schools, establishment of modern educational facilities, and the provision of essential teaching resources. The fruits of these investments are now evident in the exceptional performance of our students in the NECO examinations.

“It is important to recognise that this success story is not solely the result of governmental initiatives. It is a collective effort that involves the unwavering dedication of teachers, the support of parents and the hard work of school administrators.

“Our teachers have gone above and beyond to inspire and guide their students, often working late hours to ensure that no child is left behind.

“The support from parents has been equally commendable, as they have invested their time and resources to create a conducive environment for learning at home,” it said.

Musa further emphasised that the achievement was not solely due to government efforts but also a product of collaboration across all stakeholders in the education sector.

It however, reserved its highest praise for Kano’s students, describing them as the shining stars of today.

“Above all, we must celebrate the brilliant students of Kano state, who have demonstrated resilience, determination and unyielding pursuit of knowledge.

“Their achievements in the NECO examinations are a source of immense pride for all of us. They serve as a powerful reminder of what can be accomplished when young minds are nurtured and empowered. These students are not just the leaders of tomorrow; they are the shining stars of today,” it said.
