The resumption of all schools in Edo State has been indefinitely postponed by the government due to the recent spike in fuel prices. In a memo released on Saturday, September 7 by the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Education, Ojo Akin-Longe, in Benin, the state capital, it was announced that the previously scheduled date of September 9 for resumption has been pushed back until further notice.
According to Akin-Longe, the government has directed that all public and private schools in Edo State remain closed. This decision was made to alleviate the tension caused by the sudden increase in fuel prices and the difficulties faced by parents and guardians. It is crucial for parents, guardians, and caregivers to closely monitor their children and wards during this time of heightened stress. The government urges everyone to stay informed and follow official updates on the situation.
