The Federal Government has issued a directive for schools not to ask for COVID-19 tests from returning students.

Director, Press and Public Relations, Federal Ministry of Education, Ben Goong, relayed this in a statement issued on Monday.

The statement said: “No Covid-19 Test Required for Resumption of Students. The Federal Ministry of Education says no Covid-19 Test is required for returning students to be admitted into their schools.

“Only temperature checks should be carried out on students and any other person crossing any school gate.

“School authorities should therefore refrain from asking students or parents to undergo covid-19 test before they are accepted in their schools.”
