but why?

Hmmmmmm,
But what steps are they taking to build other schools and enrol the pupils in there?!

Misplaced priority.

Abdul-Fatal should go and complete the cancer of a road he started in Gari’alimi before showing us another stupid party of the demonic party called APC.

APC, Fraudulent government at all level.

Islamic schools ti takeover....

What a poor move After most parents have paid their children school fees.

40 illegal schools?? Wow, how did the owners sleep at night knowing what they have been doing

Illegal means of making money and to think that private schools rip off parents.

s

They were tagged Illegal probably because they did not pay tax to the state Gov't....in Kwara, we should all know whose pocket the taxes are going

Revenue collection.

Grease their palms. Schools will reopen.

hmmmm really misplaced priority

isoright

The only thing that makes a school or any other business"illegal" in Nigeria is when you don't bribe the necessary people in government places, not lack of facilities or standard of operations.

You shut down illegal schools?

Which have you built to replace them ?

Since the ban on codeine , all our government official have just been misbehaving ...

So never reach people go, but to shut down the few one Na him be your headache..


Lemme come and be going

churchee:
but why?

Cos they ain't Islamic schools. They want all schools to follow the Islamic curriculum in the state so as to maintain its caliphate status.

I think its a good idea. Have seen school spreading like Rccg without any positive impact. Recently school re built in a very small piece of land wia the pupil cant even see space for Assemble or other sporting activities

There is proliferation of private schools this day even people that don't have business with school are setting up schools just for money.

...Bt why?. z nt fresh @ all.

There are over 10,000 private schools in Lagos, one can only just imagine the illegalities swimming in there.

wise and sensible comment. Others are just shouting which did you provide? APC bla bla.... when you see the way schools are opening up in every street corner with no tangible impact on the education of the children you just shake your head for this country.

the kwara srate govt keep deceiving people with propaganda on free education.

Kwara should be commended. They are the 5th state with a highest percentage of Internally Generated Revenue, measured with the federal allocation they receive.

Funny enough the schools they shut down might even be better than govt owned schools
