Tunji Alausa, the Minister of Education, has announced the reintroduction of history as a subject in Nigerian primary and secondary schools.

The Minister disclosed while appearing as a guest on Channels Television’s End-of-Year Special Review show

that President Bola Tinubu has directed that Nigerian History should be returned.
Alausa said: “Let me go to basic education, the curriculum is good…what has been missing in the past is Nigerian history.

“We have now people of 30-year-old totally disconnected from our history. It doesn’t happen in any part of the world.

“President Bola Tinubu has mandated that we put that back in our curriculum and that is back.

“From 2025 our students in primary and secondary schools will have that as part of their studies.”

Recall that the study of history  was banned by a previous administration.
