Nigerian Ministry of Education Denies Nationwide School Closure Amidst Security Concerns
The Nigerian Ministry of Education has refuted claims of a nationwide school closure order, attributing it to misinformation circulating on social media. Recent incidents, including the abduction of 25 girls from a school in Kebbi State and attacks on schools in Kwara State, have highlighted the security challenges facing the education sector.
Omotayo Yusuf expressed concerns over the impact of such crises on education in the northern region. Additionally, the attack on a church in Kwara State and clashes between terrorist groups in Borno State have further heightened security fears.
