Don’t allow your children to travel to Ebola-prone zones during the holidays – Delta Education Commissioner cautions parents
DELTA State Commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Prof. Patrick Muoboghare has called on parents to be mindful of the movement of their children/wards during the holidays particularly travelling to highly susceptible places plagued by the dreaded Ebola Virus Disease (EVD).
The commissioner also said that he was sending his officials to the field to monitor strict compliance with the directive of the Federal Ministry of Education that ordered for the immediate closure of all summer holiday lessons.
The Commissioner in a statement in Asaba yesterday stated that the advice has become necessary because “as a ministry that stands in for parents of school age, it is the desire and hope of the ministry to see all of them back to school in good health”.
In a related development, the commissioner said that arrangement was under way to assist teachers in public school to acquire their own laptops on credit and allowed to pay instalmentally to the dealers.
He stated this during the ongoing monitoring of the computer training workshop across the 43 centres in the State.
