World book day
The development Research and Projects Centre (dRPC), with support from Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) in collaboration with other relevant stakeholders in Kano State, has officially handed over 500 primary 3 and 4 children books to Kano State library as part of commemoration activities of the 2021 English language Day/World Book Day.
In her speech, dRPC project officer of the Teacher Development Transition (TDT) to English, Malama A’isha Bello, stated that the centre has been working to strengthen the education sector in the state since 1994. She explained that the centre has recognised over the years that transition from Hausa language to English and library development are the two biggest challenges faced by the state education sector.
According to her, the centre has been in the forefront of promoting the use of libraries as well as encouraging reading habits especially among primary school pupils, hence commemorating the day with the donation of books to the library.
While deliberating his presentation on the history of American Conner and American space in Kano State, coordinator of American space, Malam Nura Mudi, revealed that in the space, one will find the collected literature of America’s best writers, information about American society, culture, policies, politics, history and business, as well as other opportunities in the states.
