Category: Lagos News

Public and private primary and secondary schools in Lagos State are not reopening on Monday, January 4, 2021, as earlier announced, but, their reopening depends on how the second wave of Covid-19 goes, it was gathered on Sunday.

When asked whether the schools would reopen as earlier announced by the Ministry of Education, the spokesman, Mr Kayode Abayomi, noted that recent developments concerning the second wave of the pandemic would not allow that.

 “Please, recall that the Ministry of Education earlier announced 4th of January as resumption date for the second term 2020/2021 academic session, but this has since been overtaken by the turn of events due to the recent waves of Covid-19 pandemic.

“As a result of the spike in Coronavirus pandemic,  Mr. Governor announced the indefinite closure of all schools. To this end, kindly be informed that a new date of resumption will be announced as soon as possible”, Abayomi stated.
