The Kwara State Government has directed the immediate closure of Government High School and Government Day Secondary School, Adeta, both in Ilorin, the state capital, due to students’ unrest.
The Commissioner for Education and Human Capital Development, Dr. Lawal Olohungbebe, who gave the directive on Wednesday, added that only students who are writing the ongoing Senior Secondary School Certificate Examinations (SSSCE) and teachers would be allowed in the school for the period of the examination.
Dr. Olohungbebe added that students who are involved in the SSSCE examinations are enjoined to always put on their identification cards while coming to the school premises and urged parents and guardians to allow their children and wards to stay with them at home.
The Commissioner warned that any student who violates these directives shall be apprehended by the security officers.
