FG Considers Shifting Jan 18 School Resumption Date

As the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 has continued to increase daily in Nigeria, the Federal Government is considering shifting the January 18th resumption date, Newsblenda reports.

In December, the presidential task force on COVID-19 had asked schools in the country to remain closed until January 18, 2021.

But at a briefing on Monday, Adamu Adamu, minister of education, said there are concerns about the scheduled date.
