I have the delight and privilege to write as Editor-in-chief of the maiden issue of the Rima International Journal of Education (RIJE), an official research publication of the Faculty of Education, Sokoto State University. This maiden edition (Volume 1 Issue 1) of the RIJE has fifteen (15) articles from distinguished scholars and educators, poised to report cutting-edge research findings and discourse on contemporary educational issues with implications for pedagogy, national and global development.

The dictum of “publish or perish” is in vogue in any worthwhile research-based institutions, hence strict adherence to publications in any reputable and recognized journal. As such, RIJE is recognized as complimentary to contemporary dissemination and propagation of knowledge. Therefore, the Editorial Board of RIJE wishes to use this medium to solicit well-researched articles for publication from a teeming population of academics and researchers globally. The journal would always be subjected to thorough peer review and proper editorial vetting.
