The compulsory shutdown of schools which took place in March 2020 across all Federal and State-owned institutions was to ensure the safety of students while combating the spread of the virus. The Program has been running since Monday, March 30th and will continue throughout the school closure period. She also encouraged parents and students to seize the unique opportunity for interactive learning on the various Wazobia Platforms from the comfort of their homes, as it also provides them with a unique opportunity to interact with tutors via call-in or WhatsApp Messaging during classes.
