A number of state governments are going ahead with reopening schools in Nigeria this September even though federal authorities have advised for caution. The Nigeria Health minister says COVID-19 still has the power to take life and still very dangerous while the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has warned the Nigerian government not to reopen higher institutions now.
However, a number of state governments have announced the full reopening of schools to begin the 2020/2021 new academic calendar for both universities, colleges, secondary and primary schools.
