Ebola: Zamfara Extends Schools’ Resumption To October 13 by Solutioncrib: 12:01pm On Sep 17, 2014


The Zamfara State Government has further extended the resumption date for schools from September 22 to October 13, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of
Education, Alhaji Lawal Talata Mafara, said.

The October date had been fixed by the federal government when the Ebola Virus Disease (BVD) broke out in the country but brought it forward to September 22 after the government assessed the situation to
be under control.

Addressing journalists in Gusau, Mafara said the extension of date by the state government was the result of a stakeholders' meeting.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), he said the Ministry of Education considered the peculiarities of the state,

"More especially is the Sallah festival
which is just a week from the date."
Mafara explained that many children in primary and post-primary schools might not resume as expected and so the stakeholders agreed to move the date.
He added that the decision also affected students on exchange programmes in the state.
