FG Makes History Compulsory in New Curriculum to Strengthen National Identity
The Federal Government of Nigeria has introduced a revised national curriculum that includes History as a compulsory subject from Primary 1 to Junior Secondary School 3. The new curriculum aims to deepen students' understanding of Nigeria's past, cultural heritage, and institutional evolution.
This move is part of an effort to strengthen national identity and civic understanding among young Nigerians. The curriculum overhaul seeks to streamline the number of subjects taught to reduce the cognitive burden on students and promote deeper learning.
The inclusion of History as a core subject marks a significant shift in Nigeria's education policy.
