FG UNLOCKS $552m HOPE-EDU FUNDING, SETS NEW PACE FOR BASIC EDUCATION REFORM In alignment with the commitment of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, to reposition education as a driver of national development, the Federal Government has unlocked $552 million under the HOPE-EDU programme to accelerate basic education reform nationwide. The Honourable Minister of Education, Dr. Maruf Tunji Alausa, CON, described the milestone as the fastest activation of education financing of this scale in Nigeria’s history, achieved within 12 months. He noted that the funding will strengthen foundational learning, expand access to quality basic education, and reinforce accountability across participating states. The HOPE for Quality Basic Education for All (HOPE-EDU) programme is co-financed by the World Bank and the Global Partnership for Education. It supports measurable reforms aligned with the Nigeria Education Sector Renewal Initiative (NESRI). Since 2022, federal education allocation has increased significantly, with ₦3.520 trillion allocated in 2026, the highest to date. The Ministry reaffirmed its commitment to ensuring that these investments deliver tangible improvements in learning outcomes, teacher effectiveness, equitable access, and system-wide accountability.
