Mr Patrick Ukah, Commissioner for Basic and Secondary
Education said in a statement issued in Asaba, that no student or teacher would
be allowed into any school without a facemask to prevent the spread of
COVID-19.
“All schools are once again directed to observe all the
COVID-19 safety protocols as stipulated in the guidelines.
“No child or teacher is to be allowed into the school
compound without a facemask.
“School infirmaries are requested to rise to their
responsibilities of ensuring regular temperature checks on all entrants into
school compounds,’’ he stated.
He added that students in boarding schools would arrive on
Sunday, Jan. 17.
“There will be resumption tests on Wednesday, Jan. 20. The
tests will be part of the students’ continuous assessment.
“Parents and guardians are urged to strictly adhere to the
new dates and prepare their children for resumption,’’ the commissioner stated.
He expressed the ministry’s regret at the inconvenience the
postponement of the earlier dates would cause pupils, students, parents and
other stakeholders in the education sector.
