The Prime Minister stated that the government has made significant investments in education, putting considerable effort into the future of Somali students and the development of knowledge at various levels.
“Education is not only the path to success, but it is also a benchmark for the modernization and building of the Somali National capacity, and it is a strong religious pillar that has been mentioned many times in the Quran and Sunnah, showing us the importance of educating students,” said Prime Minister Xamsa Cabdi Barre.
The Prime Minister added that the century-long aspirations of the DanQaran Government and the National Transformation Plan (NTP) are central to improving the quality of education in the country and modernizing the systems and other regulations in the education sector. He noted that education cannot be relied upon, especially if there is no effective system in place.
