Opinion: School Resumption: These 24 States Should Resume Schools On Monday

For over five months all students have been at home due to the fact that the federal government of Nigeria ordered the closure of schools across the country. The federal government shutdown schools because of coronavirus outbreak in the country. Although was mainly to protect the lives of students and prevent further spread of the virus in the country.

Just recently, the federal government of Nigeria approved the reopening of schools across the country, so students can fully resume back to school and continue with their education. But the problem is the Federal government didn't fix a specific date now it's up to state governments to fix resumption date for schools in their state.

Some states has already fixed a date while some are yet to fix. In my opinion these 24 states listed below should resume on Monday 14th of September 2020, because they have less number of confirmed cases and it is more safe for them to resume schools than other states with higher number of confirmed cases.

In my opinion, since the above mentioned states has a controllable number of confirmed cases of coronavirus, then they should resume on Monday. Moreover if Lagos State that has more than 18000 confirmed cases of coronavirus can resume schools on Monday, then these 24 states should fully reopen on Monday.

What do you think about this?
