More than 200 children are still missing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the statement, Peter Hawkins, UNICEF representative in Nigeria, expressed concern over how insecurity is affecting school resumption, adding that despite government\u2019s efforts, many children are not being reached due to inability to access technology and forced labour.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the most vulnerable children, including children affected by conflict, girl children, and children with disabilities, their risk of never stepping into a classroom in their lifetime is skyrocketing,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to end this insecurity and make our priorities clear, that Nigerian children can and must be allowed to benefit from an education in a safe space.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA child\u2019s first day of school should be an exciting event for parents and children, a landmark moment in their young lives, signalling new learning and new friends that will impact their futures. This moment is being stolen from around a million Nigerian children this year, as insecurity threatens their safety and education.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe number of years of education a child receives also directly affects their future earnings. Every hour a child spends in the classroom is precious. It is an opportunity to expand their horizons, maximise their potential and build their country\u2019s future.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith each passing moment, countless amounts of opportunity are lost. We must put our children\u2019s future first. We can and must tackle insecurity, stop attacks on education, and keep schools open. The clock is ticking for our young students.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United Nations Childrens Fund (UNICEF) has disclosed that at least one million children in Nigeria are unable to return to school over fear of attacks.
