LAGOS STATE SHUTS REDEEMERS NURSERY AND PRIMARY SCHOOL, OGBA 

The Lagos State Ministry of Education has shut the Redeemers Nursery and Primary School, Ogba. The school will remain closed, pending an administrative investigation of its operations and procedures as well as the conduct of its officials - in line with schools’ safety standards and guidelines.

The investigation is sequel to the death of a five-year-old pupil, who is suspected to have drowned during a swimming lesson while in the custody of the school. The police are investigating the matter.

A preliminary probe by the Office of Education Quality Assurance of the Ministry has shown that the Redeemers Nursery and Primary School, Ogba, is yet to conclude its registration and is, therefore, not yet an approved school. 

The Ministry is concerned about the safety of the pupils, hence the need for intervention. The school will remain closed until all the required approval processes are concluded. Parents are advised to note the closure and wait for the conclusion of the administrative investigation. 

Folasade Adefisayo (Mrs.)
Hon. Commissioner for Education

Lagos state keeps shutting down schools up and down but has refused to do anything about the "schools" that breed agberos and thieves. Is Lagos state government ignorant of these schools such as
1. Oshodi under bridge high school
2. Mile 2 comprehensive academy
3. Jubilee -under secondary school
4. Iyana ipaja comprehensive school
Etc

Guilty should be punished, that all

Good development. Everyone in charge of those pupils that day should be made to face the law. If found guilty, necessary punishment should be given.
If the child belongs to one of the teachers,will she be careless to let her 5 year old drown?

all these church schools sef.

Why will they do that

Safety is very important I don't understand how a primary school would have a swimming pool, I've never bought the idea. They might say it's for physical and health education and development, but it doesn't change the fact that sufh idea is a very foolish one, even as an adult I'm so scared of water bodies, it scares the hell out of me, I wouldn't lie.

If I were to advice swimming lessons should be for teenagers and not five year olds. The swimming instructors must be dealt with for their negligence to duty. This is a very terrible incident. I don't understand why teachers of nowadays are so negligent.

Besides that I believe primary schools shouldn't have swimming facilities. I won't allow my child play in the bathtub talkless of swimming pool. Even if primary schools where to have swimming pools there should be an instructor there, I don't even support primary schools having storey building structures talkless of swimming pools

Lord have mercy

For the safety of the pupils, way to go.

Lol…the school isn’t even registered yet

I don't understand why someone will still come here to politicise this issue. A school caused the death of a student, the school was shut down in order to carry out thorough investigation. And you are here to start making noise about what Tinubu did or didn't do. Curse dey una head? Learn to focus on topics and stop looking for who to blame for your miserable life. When you find a topic that'll directly connect Tinubu, yab him all you want. But use your damn flat head to think straight for once

Medicine after death...

Good development but coming late.

God help us.
Only if we know the significance of our lives, we will always be very careful

The usual knee-jack reaction in everything. Why shot down the school when other pupils needs the school to function?? Arrest those culpable and leave other innocent students and teachers to continue their daily activities. The responsible teacher that took the pupils to the swimming class at the hotel should be charged to court, including the hotel owners for gross negligence. Others should not suffer because of the negligence of the few.

Same LASG that should be shut down?

The whole school shouldn't be punished for what some misfits did.
