Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, has ordered the
immediate closure of all public and private schools in the
state.
The Kano State Commissioner of Education, Sanusi Kiru, who
disclosed this to Channels Television on Tuesday evening, said the
state government also closed down “all public and private health
training institutions, including schools of basic/postbasic nursing
and midwifery, schools of health technology and school of hygiene
with immediate effect.”
The commissioner asked parents whose children are in boarding
schools to pick them on Wednesday.
“His Excellency, The Executive Governor of Kano State has
approved the closure of all public and Private Schools in the State
with immediate effect,” he said.
“Parents whose children are in boarding schools are to also
arrange and convey their children/ wards back home from tomorrow,
Wednesday, 16th December 2020.”
Although the state government did not give the reason for the
immediate closure, it is believed to be connected to the abduction
of 333 students of Government Science Secondary School, Kankara in
neighbouring Katsina State on Friday night.

Following the unfortunate incident, Boko Haram claimed
responsibility for the attack, in what appears to be a major
expansion of the jihadist group’s activities into new areas.

“I am Abubakar Shekau and our brothers are behind the kidnapp
ing in Katsina,” the leader of Boko Haram said in a voice
message.
More than 100 gunmen on motorcycles stormed the rural school
north of Kankara town, forcing students to flee and hide in the
surrounding bush.
The immediate closure of the schools comes three days to the end
of the third term as schools in Kano were expected to vacate on
Friday, December 18.
Katsina Parents Keep Vigil Meanwhile, the parents of the
abducted GSSS, Kankara students have converged on the premises of
the school patiently waiting for their children to return as
promised by the government.
Their gathering is coming less than one week after the abduction
took the nation by surprise.
The parents have also been recounting their experiences as they
continue to hope for the return of their children.
Speaking to Channels Television, two of the parents said they
couldn’t sleep, adding that they will continue to be spending the
night at the school until their children are rescued safely.
Upon arrival at the school gate on Tuesday, Channels Television
discovered that the Ƙanƙara school is located at the centre of a
bush leading to some scattered settlements some of which are Zango
and Dansabau in Zamfara border axis.
It also gathered that besides the school fence is a busy road
leading to Ƙanƙara weekly Tuesday Market with daily business
activities on the increase.
