The Presidency on
Tuesday made clarifications on school resumption following the gradual
relaxation of the lockdown ordered by President Muhammadu Buhari due to the
outbreak of COVID-19.
Recall that Buhari
had ordered a gradual relaxation of the lockdown starting from Monday next
week, but was, however, silent on the reopening of schools.
However, Buhari’s
spokesperson, Femi Adesina while featuring on TVC, said schools may re-open for
those about to take exams.
Adesina said
candidates about to take West African Examinations Council (WAEC) and other
examinations may be allowed to go back to school.
He said: “If you
look at Germany, they gradually reduced their lockdown by opening the schools
for those who have exams.
“Same may apply here
as those who are to write WAEC and take examinations may be allowed to resume
to take their exams.
“The Presidential
Task Force will be the ones to decide on when to re-open.”
