Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, has said that all unity schools in Nigeria are to resume on October 12.
The Minister made the announcement today in Abuja at a briefing where he noted that states are at liberty to fix their resumption dates.
Adamu, however, did not announce dates for tertiary institutions reopening but directed the regulatory agencies to begin to work out modalities for the resumption
He said, “We have consulted widely with all stakeholders in the education sector. Our eyes and ears are opened to the international media.
“I’m glad to report that there has not been any single case of COVID-19 in all Unity Schools. No single fatality among the students.
“We have come to the conclusion that we have to review our decisions. After consultation with PTF, we have resolved that our Unity Schools be opened on October 12, 2020.”
