Despite calls to the contrary, the federal government has directed that all schools from the primary to the tertiary level remain open during the general election.
In a statement by the Minister of Education, Ibrahim Shekarau, there are unfounded fears and rumours of security threats during the elections but elections have been held in the past and schools were in session.
He explained that schools are already in the 2nd term and have lost much ground following their closure to prevent the spread of the Ebola Virus Disease.
The minister went on to say that schools that are already on mid term break should recall their students, while those yet to embark on the break should hold off.
He also clarified that this directive also applies to private schools.
