Following the floods that affected some communities, especially in the riverine areas of the State, Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, has directed public Primary and Secondary Schools submerged in the floods to proceed on a three weeks holiday beginning from Monday, October 14, 2019.
This becomes necessary in order to forestall possible attendant incidents that may likely affect the lives of vulnerable pupils in those areas as a result of the floods. It is also aimed at protecting valuables from avoidable destruction.
All Head Teachers and Principals are advised to adhere to this directive; and in particular, ensure that all perishable educational materials are evacuated.
Meanwhile, Government is currently working out remedial logistics believing that the floods would recede within the period of the three weeks holiday.
