FG Postpones Resumption Of Schools To Prevent Ebola Virus by passionateyouth: 6:06pm On Aug 13, 2014 |
To prevent an outbreak of the Ebola Viral Disease (EVD), the Federal Government yesterday approved the extension of the current holiday of primary and secondary schools across the country until further notice. The development, government stated, is part of measures to curb the spread of Ebola. Also, the National Council on Health (NCH) has banned the inter-state transportation of corpses with immediate effect. Senior Special Assistant to the President on Youth and Students Matters, Comrade Jude Imagwe, who disclosed the postponement of school resumption in Abuja yesterday did not state how long the students would be on holiday. He said that President Goodluck Jonathan was wary of the danger of the disease to the nation’s future generation and as a result ordered that the schools remained on holiday till the country find a way out of the outbreak. “He advised that as a President, he did not desire that our secondary and primary schools should be opened at this time because we have high population of young brothers and sisters who want to see themselves grow from primary and graduate tomorrow. “We cannot have what it takes to have eye on each of these brothers and sisters: the future of this country in their classes,” he said. He spoke at a one-day forum on Tertiary Institutions Students Health Insurance Programme organised by the National Universities Commission (NUC) and NHIS. Imagwe, who charged Nigerians to be conscious of their environment as well as maintain healthy lifestyle in the face of Ebola outbreak, also cautioned against the use of untested and unscientific drugs as a prevention or cure to the virus. http://passionfortheyoung..com 1 Like |

The tertiary institution should be close to avoid the spreading of e-bola. Nairaland should follow suit to stop the spreading of rumour about E-bola. |

Nice work from GEJ.....the extension should last into the Harmattan season when the rate of infection should be drastically low or eradicated entirely due to the very low humidity of that particular season..... |

DONMAYOR19: Seriously FGN has really be trying to stop the spread of this ebola. I pray God Almighty help them as they fight this ebola in Jesus name.Mrs dreamer, who told you that ur government are interested in fight ebola. Their only waiting for U.S.A to send them the experimental drug instead of researching for their own cure. Who told you that ebola can not be cured 2ru herbs. Even ur useless NAFDAG is threatening to arrest any one who comes up with cure of ebola 4rm Nigeria instead of encouraging the people to search for d cure, they are crawling nd begging d united state. so tel me, if you find d cure for ebola will you be confident to tell anyone nd be arrested by ur NAFDAG?. So the students shld stay at home while we wait for united state to send us the experimental drugs..........! Warrants nonsense!!!. |
