Following the worsening state of insecurity in parts of Niger State, the state government has closed all public schools with effect from Friday , March 12, 2021.

The statement explained that the policy was necessary “to give relevant security agencies the time and opportunity to conduct a comprehensive risk assessment of all public secondary schools” in the state. The statement emphasised government’s commitment to “leave no stone unturned and ensure that all schools are safe environments for effective teaching and learning”.

“ My daughter had earlier woken me up that there were some people in the compound,” the Ward chairman told THISDAY on telephone interview, adding that before he could do anything, “the bandits started shooting at our rooms; I shouted to others to run but bullet hit one person injuring him seriously”.
