Young entrepreneur published a book on small-scale business in Yobe

By: Yahaya Wakili

A young small-scale business entrepreneur from Yobe State, Suleiman Mohammed Jinjiri, has published a book titled “Building Life Through Small Scale Business.”

Suleiman Mohammed Jinjiri, a graduate of the University of Maiduguri, works as a classroom teacher and small-scale business entrepreneur in the Geidam local government area of Yobe State.

The author’s book encourages young people to engage in small-scale business as a means of improving their standard of living and achieving success in life.

The book, Building Life Through Small Scale Business, focuses on small-scale business owners and potential entrepreneurs.

The author of this book felt the need and agreed that there are a lot of business books out there by several authors, but few address the peculiarities of doing business in Nigeria, especially Yobe, and actually thriving.

Suleiman Mohammed Jinjiri maintained that the book comes with sound knowledge on how to start a business, the skills needed to run an enterprise, and vast opportunities that will make ends meet.

“The book is also interesting and very educative because the author chose to use both formal and informal tone in the writing of this book. In addition, it differentiates between business and opportunity, and one may make money while seeking opportunities and a sustainable way of becoming successful in life.”

By: Our Reporter

Borno State Governor, Babagana Umara Zulum, held a high-level meeting on Thursday with key stakeholders in the education sector to review current challenges and outline fresh directives for improving learning outcomes, infrastructure, and coordination across the state.

The meeting, chaired by the Governor at the Council Chamber of the Government House in Maiduguri, brought together senior officials from the Ministry of Education, Science, Technology and Innovation and heads of education boards, agencies, and institutions.

Zulum emphasised the synergy among all agencies in the education sector noting that with proper collaboration effective service delivery would be provided for the people of Borno.

Governor Zulum outlined a multifaceted plan to rejuvenate the education sector, which includes building houses for teachers, renovating dilapidated schools, providing professional development opportunities, and improving teachers’ access to resources.

The meeting was attended by the Deputy Governor, Umar Usman Kadafur, Acting Chief of Staff, Dr Babagana Mustapha Mallumbe, Commissioner for Education, Science, Technology and Innovation, Engr Lawan Abba Wakilbe, among other senior officials.

… orders more high Islamic colleges, libraries

Meanwhile, as part of his policy direction for the education sector, Governor Babagana Umara Zulum has directed the establishment of additional High Islamic Colleges in some local government areas.

The High Islamic Colleges are designed to offer a wide range of programmes, including traditional Islamic studies, literacy and numeracy, modern sciences, and vocational training.

According to Zulum, the High Islamic Colleges were to ensure the integration of the non-formal education sector with formal education. He also affirmed that the colleges will teach basic literacy, numeracy, and vocational skills to Almajiri pupils and will provide a second chance for out-of-school children who have exceeded the enrollment age.

In addition, the governor directed the establishment of additional state libraries in Biu, southern Borno, and Monguno, in the northern part of the state.

“Deliberately, I upgraded the Maiduguri library, with the aim of establishing another one in Biu and one in Monguno in order to promote reading culture, which is fast eroding. I want you to rejuvenate the reading culture by ensuring the library is effective. But most importantly, apart from the physical books, let’s put a mechanism for e-books in place,” Zulum said.
