The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) has placed an indefinite suspension on registration of new private primary and secondary schools, in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). Speaking during a meeting with representatives of the National Association of Proprietors of Private Schools (NAPPSS), in his office, at the weekend, the secretary, Education Secretariat (FCTA), Sen. Isah Maina, stated that the suspension would remain in force, until new guidelines, to address the complaints and changes are put in place. Maina disclosed that the administration is reviewing the guidelines for the establishment and operations of private schools in FCT, to remove loopholes and ensure that the right things are done. He directed owners of private schools in the territory to make security and safety of school children, under them, a priority and advises proprietors, who do not have the resources for running private schools, to close shops. The secretary, who explained that it is only the department of quality assurance that has the permission to visit private schools for monitoring and supervision, also pledged to liaise with the FCT Internal Revenue Service, to streamline payment of taxes by the schools. Earlier, the president of NAPPSS, FCT chapter, Samira Jibir, had listed some of the challenges facing the association to include, multiple taxation and lack of titles, for private school lands, among others. Jibir however revealed that many private schools, perpetrating unprofessionalism, in the territory, including the latest school, whose school bus led to the killing of three children, were not members of NAPPSS. She called on the administration to make membership of NAPPSS a compulsory requirement for registration of private schools in the territory, which, according to her, is the only way to have sanity in the administration of private school in the nation’s capital.

You talking QUANTITY over QUALITY bro.
Sad!!

Suspending licensing of private schools is a law that is in contradiction of the law that supports the creation of privately owned schools in the first place. So there is no legal justiciability for this move and the FCTA can be sued

Is the FCTA allowed to come up with its own law even when they are contrary to the laws of the federation. Does the FCTA have it's own assembly? These are some questions that will come up when they start to sue the FCTA.

Because your country keeps churning out kids like pure water also. By 2050 Nigeria's population would have risen drastically and you need Private Schools to service them less Government would break down trying to school them in public schools. As long as a private school is of good quality let them license it.

I dont just know why it is fulani that must head every organization not as if they are qualified.

The economy is helping to reset people's brain faster.

quite commendable

do we have standard in this country...education is something we ought to hold in high esteem....dee shd be set standards for school be it public and private....it's an aberration that wat we call education is a sham....our public schools are worse than prison walls....today virtually all our schools nothing like school sports...yet we want to win medals in Olympics....how private have space for sports dis days...have quality teachers....i just pity the next generation of children in our society...what is the Nigerian vision and dream.... If our public schools are of standard den u can hold private school to Ransom.... Every community ought to have a well runned public primary secondary school...but it's not d case....

This is a welcome development.

The need to sanitize the system cannot be overemphasized.
