PDP Advises FG Against School Closures Amid Insecurity

The People's Democratic Party (PDP) warns the Nigerian government against shutting down schools in response to increased kidnappings, advocating for sustained security measures. PDP leaders Tanimu Turaki and Ini Ememobong emphasize the importance of prioritizing schoolchildren's safety and implementing national policies for violence-free schools.

The Nigerian Former Legislators Forum (NFFL) criticizes PDP's stance, urging unity and practical solutions over politicization of security issues. The debate highlights concerns over insecurity around schools, especially in northern Nigeria, and the need for a strategic approach to combat terrorism.
