Fuel Price Hike: Edo Govt Suspends School Resumption
Edo State Government has announced a tentative postponement of the resumption of all schools in the state due to the hike in fuel prices.
The State government made this known in a memo by the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Education, Ojo Akin-Longe, in Benin City on Saturday.
The permanent secretary said the resumption, earlier scheduled for Monday, September 9, was postponed until further notice.
“The Edo State Government hereby announces the postponement of the resumption of all public and private schools in Edo State, originally scheduled for Monday, September 9, 2024, until further notice.
An official statement from the government has directed that schools remain closed due to the tension arising from the recent increase in fuel prices and the challenges faced by parents and guardians.
“The government urges parents, guardians, and caregivers to monitor the activities of their children and wards closely, given the current situation and the rising tension caused by the fuel price hike,” Akin-Longe said.
