Good idea. The compensation for the owners of the lands are too small because this is a life commitment. There was no budget for maintenance of the grave yards, employment, resources and the tools. There was no mention of paid employment for teachers. There was no mention of maintenance of these schools on a regular basis.

Once, Nomadic education, another karatu & scholar's scholarship by Federal Govt. The muslim are united and stronger in religion. The approval of all these did not pass any reading and little millions were spent with less contractors. If its the Ctian, billions would have been spent and no visible project, Alhaji will collect the contract and settled the xtians, build 10 claim 100.... Abeg make we dey look them while they progress in religion. lol;
