Just on Monday yesterday, the Minister of Education Malam Adamu Adamu said that the Federal Government is currently reviewing the January 18th resumption date for schools across the country, following the recent rise in COVID-19 cases, but today the National Coordinator of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, said Schools across the nation will resume on January 18 except the Ministry of Education announces otherwise.

Dr Sani Aliyu, said this on Tuesday during a television programme

According to him, “As regards schools, I just want to make a clarification, what the minister said yesterday was that they were going to review, he didn’t say that they were going to change the date. He said they will review the situation and let the nation know.

“So, for the moment, it is still 18th January until the ministry of education comes back either with an alternative date or reconfirms that.”
