The Edo and Kano States governments have indefinitely postponed the resumption date for both primary and secondary schools for the 2024/2025 academic session due to the economic hardship that has bedeviled the Country at this period.
The decision follows a homogenous move by the Governments of both States, which also postponed school resumption due to rising petrol prices and challenges faced by parents and guardians.
Schools in most parts of Nigeria are set to resume on Monday, September 9.
