The Southwest government s are not serious.

How could you be holdinh a "virtual" meeting because of Covid-19 and still resolved that students should resume "physical"classes,when the covid-19 is still there?

Angelinastto:

Hehe, this your joblessness pass me. You still followed another mention? This is the last reply you'll get.

Okay crawl back into your miserable hole.

adelove1914:


Pele ooo..so what should he have called you? Professor?Lol..Funny Nigerians..

Nothing. He needn't call me anything. Mr. man is a familiar and rude term. Anonymity should not preclude courtesy.

Angelinastto:

What's with all these senseless mentions about sex? If that's all you can think about, some of us actually value our education and graduating at the stipulated time.

Let me tell you why you're getting the silly mentions.

They see the (f) in your moniker, race to check your profile, see your fine picture and then start thinking of how to get your attention.

But because they are immature, they decide to go for the shock option, i.e say something outrageous to make her notice me.

Best to ignore totally.

DEMOCRATICALLY SOPHISTICATED SOUTH WEST, we don't follow follow like a fool because we are different from the rest.

The north can shut their schools till 2023 for all i care.

proffemi:


One or two schools? Do you know that there are close to 10,000 secondary schools in Nigeria? Bros, take it to the bank, you will have positive tests in at least 500 schools over the next few weeks. And for you to think a principal "worth his onions" can prevent students from infecting themselves or others shows that you are out of touch with how secondary schools in Nigeria operate. No matter how many guidelines, will you stop students from walking home together? Playing together? You may think it makes sense to just cavalierly blame principals for infections, but there is no power on earth that can stop students infecting others. That is what the Israel example shows us. You are also cavalier in implying some students should just write SSCE next year because of a stupid rush that I have already shown makes no sense. Isn't that cruel of you?


Everything you've said here is obvious to anyone who has followed this outbreak. I was was de emphasizing the kids because your initial post made it clear that you thought the main concern was about kids dying.


Edit: For your information, Israel had less than 50 cases a day (and we have much more). They reopened their schools, now see what they are saying: https://www.wsj.com/articles/israelis-fear-schools-reopened-too-soon-as-covid-19-cases-climb-11594760001

You people should stop sentimental arguments, and base decisions on FACTS, and EVIDENCE. Follow the accurate DATA wherever it leads. Sorry to burst your bubble, but this is one case where the Aboki man (not my words; that's what others have been calling him) is right.

So when do you think is the right time to reopen schools?

There is no specific date for reopening of schools.

Reopening! When?

WAEC to move to August 24.

Then what?

What is the date of resumption or reopening?

Someone should please clarify.

Angelinastto:

na lie. The girl no fine, she be like doll baby looking for person to play with her

Bomboiy:

So when do you think is the right time to reopen schools?

Thank you. This is a good question because any discerning reader would have noticed that I *never* said schools should not reopen. I have only insisted that there is no evidence that they can do so safely at this time.

The government's guidelines do not seem to be based on sound data. If they assume COVID is dangerous (which they seem to; even their meeting was done virtually ) then those guidelines are insufficient to prevent its spread. On the other hand, if they believe COVID in Nigeria has peaked, or that its mortality has plateaued, they should present the evidence (there is none). Otherwise, what we have is a situation where the government seems to believe COVID is still a menace that has not peaked, but still want to rush resumption because of the misguided belief that their guidelines (as currently drawn up) will ensure no infections. Because, as I asked someone, in a doomsday scenario, what happens to the SSCE exams in schools when students/teachers start testing positive? A few schools get to re-write SSCE next year? We keep writing exams even if two, three teachers die

So, it's about being able to convincingly show that were schools to resume, it would be safe for the vast majority of teachers, students and parents to whom the kids will take COVID at home.

To answer your question, schools should resume when the government can do the above. They have not yet.

Who told you that it's only on schools, the Virus would spread, nobody is saying is a hoax or anything, but the disease has come to stay a while, and not going anytime soon, should the schools be the closed for ever? The nation's that are still saying no school for now, their kids are doing online classes, which 90% of Nigerian students aren't doing. Do you know the devastating effects of locking down education for a year or more. I'm not saying resume so we all go due there. But put things in place to ensure safe reopening and do a staggered opening, so as to control population, since our schools are overcrowded.

You are very funny, did I in any of my write up say the virus can only spread in school, am only saying opening of school right now is a no no, haven’t you heard of the saying health is wealth. Have you for once thought of kids who are asthmatic or kids that are ss, how do you distance such kids after school period or during lunch break. Kids will always be kids.

For your information WASCE Body are planning on rescheduling the exam, do you know better than the government or foreign leaders doing all they can to reduce the spread of this virus. Please let’s be guided.

This set of sw governors are kinda mature and mean well for the region at large.. special mention to the oyo state governor; Engin. Seyi Makinde

Education has always been a high priority value in the Western part of Nigeria since the time of Baba Obafemi Awolowo.

proffemi:


Do not call me "Mr Man". Tw*t.
The words "Bill Gates" in your post suggest you're not someone I want to waste a few minutes of my life on. Please mind your lane, and have a good morning.

You don't even know what you are ranting on about.

There is no way you will mention covid without mentioning Bill Gates m. o. ron.

You seem confused. Go read up on facts. Nairaland is not a dustbin of thougtless info from people like you.

When you think you know too much, you later realize you know nothing.
Donald Trump announced the reopening of schools in America, yet parents refused to send their children to school.
I watched the governor of New York live on Fox news, he said New York will not reopen schools not until the virus is under control.
These are still arrogant steps to tell you that so many scholars don't believe in the pandemic.
The truth is that if we get to a worst hit state, we don't even have the facilities to fight the virus.
Apart from Lagos State, how many states in Nigeria have more than 3 isolation center?
In all of those isolation center's how many respirators do they have?
Don't joke with the life of our children.

you ignorant fool, does Nigeria even have half the case of New York.. I no blame you, I blame the person wey allow you dey watch news on cable TV and coming here to compare U.S with Nigeria as if any two country in the world are the same.... why would you need 3 isolation centers when most of the states are reporting less than 10 cases a day? I'm sure you are one of those fools who supported the opening of churches and mosques and yet want kids to stay at home for a whole year... In that America you are shouting most of the parents got stimulus checks last month and are staying home to take care of their children, now tell me how many Nigerians can afford to sit down at home for a week waiting for manna from above?

Sweden never shut schools!!..we all must not follow America

Even in America they have opened day care centers because the young children are disturbing the parents who are working from home.

Even Ghana, Cameroon, South Africa, India, Sierra Leone, Finland, Sweden, Germany and on and on and on.

Most countries have started sending their kids back to school. MANDATORILY.

They could decide to hold meeting g in any form. The point is that WAEC cannot be conducted virtually... That's the issue here.
