Niger State Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago has ordered the immediate closure of all schools across the state due to rising security concerns. The directive affects public, private, and religious institutions and will remain in effect until authorities are confident that students and staff are safe.
The decision followed a high-level security meeting in Minna, where Governor Bago expressed worry over recent kidnappings and violent attacks affecting communities. He described the temporary shutdown as regrettable but necessary, saying it is the most responsible step to protect lives amid the growing threat.
The governor urged security agencies, local leaders, and civil society groups to intensify efforts toward rescuing abducted children and restoring peace. However, many parents and educators are seeking clearer guidance, asking how long the closure may last and what new security measures will be introduced once schools reopen.
For now, the suspension of academic activities has created uncertainty for thousands of students, raising broader concerns about safety, learning gaps, and long-term stability in the state.
