Fuel Price Hike: Kano, Edo Postpone School Resumption Indefinitely

The Kano State Government has indefinitely delayed the resumption date for both primary and post-primary schools for the 2024/2025 academic session.

The decision follows a similar move by the Edo State Government, which also postponed school resumption due to rising petrol prices and challenges faced by parents and guardians.

However, Kano government cited “urgent reasons” for the delay but did not give further details.

Balarabe Kiru, Director of Public Enlightenment at the Kano State Ministry of Education, announced the postponement in a statement on Saturday.
