Edo Government Shuts Down Secondary School Over Students Attack on Teachers, Police | Daily Report Nigeria

Idogbo Secondary School in Ikpoba-Okha Local Government Area, Edo State has been shut down indefinitely by the State Government following the attack on teachers and a police officer by students of the school.

It was reported earlier that the students of the school destroyed school properties and attacked teachers and one of the police officers who was brought to maintain peace as they were about to write their first term examinations.

Joan Osa-Oviawe, the Commissioner for Education in the state, while disclosing the indefinite closure of the school stated that the state government would take serious action on the crisis in the school in order to serve as a deterrent.

She also said the parents of the students will be compelled to pay for the damaged properties.

The commissioner said;

“We condemn, in strongest terms, what those students did. It is unacceptable. We have zero-tolerance for destruction of government property.

“The students and their parents are going to be held accountable for this. Somebody has to pay for the repairs and it will not just be the government.

“So, the school will be shut down and we will regroup and reorganize.

“If you go to the school, what was destroyed will cost a minimum of N30 million, and that is a very conservative estimate.

“Government is not going to start putting money that would have been used for other schools or things. So, all the parents of the students in that school are going to be held responsible.

“We want to strengthen the curriculum and amenities in that school and other schools so that students are gainfully engaged throughout their time in school.

“Sporting activities will also be reintroduced in the school, along with experts in guidance and counseling.

“The fifth pillar of ‘EdoBest’ is value. We want to ensure we bring back value into our system. Discipline is going to be restored in that school and all our schools across the state.”
