With what happened today that the Presidential and National Assembly elections were shifted due to some logistics reasons according to INEC chairman Prof. Manhood Yakubu.
He said this in his interview According to him, “Following a careful review of the implementation of its logistics and operational plan and the determination to conduct free, fair and credible elections, the Commission came to the conclusion that proceeding with the elections as scheduled is no longer feasible.
He said, “consequently,
the Commission has decided to reschedule the Presidential and National
Assembly Elections to Saturday, 23rd February 2019. Furthermore, the
Governorship, State House of Assembly and Federal Capital Territory
(FCT) Area Council Elections is rescheduled to Saturday 9th March 2019.
This will afford the Commission the opportunity to address identified
challenges in order to maintain the quality of our elections.

With this antecedent issue we think the school will not resume as earlier scheduled in the Sms and we expect the management to resend their students another date for resumption.
