Primary and secondary schools as well as technical colleges in Ogun State have been given a new date to resume for the second term.
This is as the government also mandated each parent and guardian to sign an undertaking that they would willingly abide by all laid down rules and regulations.
DAILY POST reports that instead of the earlier announced January 4th resumption date, schools are now to resume on Monday, January 10, 2022.
The Ogun State Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology, Prof Abayomi Arigbabu, had in a statement extended the holiday by one week.
Arigbabu said the new date became necessary due to a series of pre-resumption activities put up by the Education Ministry to further reposition education in the state.
Recently, some schools in Ogun State went under attack as parents and students hired thugs to brutalise teachers, who must have punished their children for any unruly behaviour.
Also, some videos went viral recently wherein young schoolgirls were seen smoking and videoing themselves.
To put an end to any deviant act in schools and technical colleges, the Ministry of Education asked students and their parents or guardians to visit their schools between January 4 and 10 to sign an undertaking of willingness to abide by the laid down rules and regulations while also supporting and enforcing discipline in schools.
