Though the government was yet to officially issued any statement to that effect, the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, was however said to have told Heads of the various Federal Government-owned schools that they could reopen on October 12, 2020. The message has it that the Federal Ministry of Education has advised the schools to strictly observe the COVID-19 protocols upon resumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As part of the directives by Adamu to the schools, those that did not conclude second term before the hurried closure in March are to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They are then to immediately commence third term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adamu said the schools are to conclude their third term in December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the reopening of the Federal Government Colleges, expectations are that universities will also resume in a matter of days.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Federal Government Colleges get approval to reopen","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"federal-government-colleges-get-approval-to-reopen","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-09-30 23:52:45","post_modified_gmt":"2020-09-30 23:52:45","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/newsspecng.com\/?p=122","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":498},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_3"};
