The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Islamic centre is meant to provide access for Almajiris who will memorize the Holy Quran to be trained and certified with primary, secondary and diploma certificates.

He said, ”They will undergo rigorous training in both English and Arabic studies with which they will use the certificates to join the academia and make the sky their limits in pursuit of knowledge.”

Kwankwaso explained that the institute was his idea to make sure that the streets were not only relieved of beggars but also for those seen to be begging provided with life opportunities.
