Kano — Minister of Education Malam Adamu Adamu has disputed allegation that the ministry is planning to Islamise Nigeria.
Adamu who paid a courtesy visit yesterday to Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of Kano State, said, "Since the controversy started, I did not say anything about it until today. The ministry is accused and by extension I am accused of picking out Christian Religious Knowledge from the education curriculum and then imposing Islamic Religious knowledge on both Christian and Muslim schools. This is not true at all. In 2012, the then Federal Government under Goodluck Jonathan formulated a policy where IRK and CRK were grouped together. The implementation of the policy started since 2014. That was two years after the formulation of the policy and about two years before I became minister of education."
