The circular which was signed by the Director of Schools in the Ministry, Remi Ajayi, quoted Olomojobi as saying that the postponement followed the public holidays declared by the Federal Government (FG) to commemorate Worker’s Day and Eid-el-Fitr.
“This development, therefore, put paid to the controversy surrounding schools”.
“Consequently, schools’ resumption hitherto scheduled for Monday, May 2, has been postponed as a result of the public holidays to mark Workers’ Day and Sallah celebration”
