Following the announcement by Ministry of Education that there was no going back on the Monday, January 18, 2020, school resumption date, the Federal Government has been cautioned by House of Representatives against reopening schools amid the increasing number of deaths attributed to coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
The House through its Committee on Basic Education and Services in a statement signed by its Chairman, Professor Julius Ihonvbere, said the earlier decision to reopen academic institutions was ill-timed. The lawmakers, observed that some states has abandoned the safety protocols, and however, gave a number of safety measures to pursue by the federal Ministry of Education if the schools must be reopened for academic activities, seeking 3 months postponement to enable the state and local governments to put all the necessary facilities in place before the resumption.
