LEADERSHIP learnt that several of the affected unwholesome schools were sealed by the education taskforce led by the commissioner for education, Prof. Ubong Essien.

During the return visits, several of the sealed premises were unsealed, forcing the angry commissioner to order the arrest and detention of the defaulting proprietors currently awaiting prosecution.

“During the ministry’s regular monitoring exercise, it was observed that while several operators of unauthorised private school had obeyed the ministry’s directive and shut down operations, few operators had unsealed their school premises and continued with academic activities

“The ministry of education wishes to reiterate its stance on the closure of unauthorized and rogue schools operating in Akwa Ibom State.

Accordingly, parents and guardians in both urban and rural communities are strongly advised not to enroll their children or wards in any private school that is not duly registered or licenced by the Ministry of Education, as the state-wide enforcement exercise to identify and seal off all unauthorised schools will continue throughout the school year.
