She further said that 90% of private schools in Plateau do not adhere to government policies and mandates and 85% of the 495 private schools earlier granted licenses had compromised.
She said;
“This is to inform the general public that the operating license of all private Nursery/Pre-primary, Primary, Junior Secondary and Senior Secondary Schools in the State will have to revalidate their certification.”
