Keep schools closed- 19 Northern States to Buhari
The Commissioners of Education in the 19 Northern States have resolved to reopen schools only when it is safe to do so, following the spike in cases of COVID-19.
The commissioners in a communique in Kaduna on Saturday, after a virtual meeting to consider schools reopening and other issues to strengthen the education sector, said keeping schools closed in the face of the spike in COVID-19 cases across the country was a sure step to ensure that children remained safe.
The communique was signed by Dr Shehu Makarfi, Commissioner for Education, Kaduna State, who is also the Chairman of the northern states School Exchange Programme (SEP).
