The Yobe State Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education has declared 18 days holiday for schools across the state to enable students and teachers exercise their civic right in the forthcoming general elections.<\/p>\n

A letter signed by the director, Schools Management Committee, Bukar M. Modu in Damaturu<\/a> stated;<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish to convey the approval of the commissioner for 18 days holidays from 23rd February, 2023 to 13th March, 2023 to enable students and teachers to exercise their civic rights in the forthcoming 2023 general elections.\u201d<\/p>\n

The letter said the break was in consideration of the distance of some students, especially exchange program students, from polling centres. However, 10 days will be deducted from the Third Term holiday.<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cTo recover the 10 days, students are to break for the Third Term holiday from Tuesday 15th August instead of Friday 4th August, 2023 as earlier scheduled in the calendar.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe commissioner wishes all students and teachers hitch-free elections, students have been cautioned not to be used as thugs for the benefit of anybody.<\/p>\n

\u201cYobe State government is committed to their welfare and shall continue to provide qualitative education for their future.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
