You cannot improve what you cannot measure. That is why we are building one of the largest education data systems in Africa and using it to transform how we plan, manage and improve education across Nigeria. 🇳🇬 During my keynote address at the 2026 DHIS2 Annual Conference in Oslo, Norway, I was proud to spotlight Nigeria’s Digital National Education Management Information System (DNEMIS), a platform built in collaboration with @UNICEF, that is helping us understand exactly what is happening in our schools and make better decisions for learners and schools across the country. Today, DNEMIS captures data on more than 32 million learners in 204,048 schools across all 36 states, the FCT and 774 Local Government Areas. This means we can better identify where classrooms, teachers, learning materials and other interventions are needed most, ensuring resources reach the children and communities that need them. Nigeria now accounts for 32 million of the 45 million education records hosted globally on the DHIS2 platform, making our country the largest education implementation on the platform anywhere in the world. As we continue to implement the Nigeria Education Sector Renewal Initiative (NESRI), @NesriNigeria, in line with President @officialABAT, GCFR’s vision for education, we are using technology and data to build a more efficient, transparent and accountable education system that delivers better outcomes for every Nigerian child. The future of education is not guesswork. It is data, evidence and action. #DAC2026 – at Oslo, Norway
