The Shehu of Borno , Alhaji
Abubakar Ibn Garbai, has said the
Boko Haram insurgency is a great
setback to western education in the
state.
Garbai stated this when he received
members of the senior course of
the Nigerian Army School of Public
Relations and Information in his
palace in Maiduguri on Monday , the
News Agency of Nigeria ( NAN)

The Shehu noted that before the
advent of the Boko Haram
insurgency , some people were
hesitant in embracing western
education as they concentrated in
Qur’anic education .
Garbai added although various
administrations in the state had
been able to convince the people on
the advantages of western
education, massive destruction of
schools by the insurgents had
caused great setback .
“ The Boko Haram insurgents have
further worsened our condition in
terms of western education” , NAN
