The Federal Ministry of Education, has ordered the immediate closure of the Federal Government College, FGC, Kwali, located in Kwali Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
The Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, who gave the directive in the early hours of yesterday, said the closure became necessary following security breaches on Sheda and Lambata Villages, suburbs of Kwali Area Council which also threatened the school.
A statement signed by the Director Press and Public Relations, Ben. Bem Goong, quoted the Minister, as saying the timely intervention of security agencies saved the situation and therefore directed that arrangements be made for final year students to conclude their NECO examinations
The statement also noted that the Minister had also directed Principals of Unity Colleges across the country to liaise with Security Agencies within their jurisdictions to forestall any security breaches in their schools
Meanwhile, there have been unsubstantiated information that other Federal Government Colleges within the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, have asked parents to come pick their children earlier than the official closing date owing to insecurity in the Capital City
