Federal education authorities have ordered all schools to stay closed in response to President Goodluck Jonathan’s directive on gatherings over Ebola fears, but the president appears set to violate his own rule yet again by expanding his re-election rallies amidst outrage following two previous campaigns in Awka and Ibadan.

The Federal Ministry of Education on Tuesday directed that all public and private primary and secondary schools should remain closed till October 13, about a month extension of normal school resumption date.

“All primary and secondary schools both public and private are to remain closed until Monday, Oct. 13, 2014, which is the new resumption date for all schools throughout the federation,” the Minister of Education, Ibrahim Shekarau, announced after a meeting in Abuja, with Commissioners for Education from all the 36 states.

“This is to ensure that adequate measures are put in place before the students report back to school,” Mr. Shekarau said.
