He gave the order in Kaduna, at the launching of the reviewed editions of the books, which were originally published in 1974.
The President, who was represented by the Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, noted that books of this kind have become necessary in the face of declining moral and religious values in the country.
Mallam Mukhtar Lere reviewed Islamic Studies for Secondary Schools to conform with the current 6-3-3-4 educational system in the country.
