“I wish to inform pupils, students, and parents that the announcement made earlier for school resumption on 8 and 9 September 2024 is now being postponed due to some urgent reasons that will help improve the conducive learning atmosphere for our children,” Doguwa was quoted as saying in the statement.
While the government has assured that a new resumption date will be announced soon, the sudden postponement has raised concerns among students and parents, who are now left to wonder about the reasons behind the decision.
The lack of clarity on the exact reasons for the postponement has only added to the confusion and frustration.
As the wait continues, students and parents are left to bear the inconvenience of the postponement, with many wondering what the future holds for the academic session.
