“We must equally study security situations in areas where we operate, be sensitive to any sign of disturbance, and adhere strictly to COVID-19 Protocols.

“To justify the kind gestures of the Commissioner, we must pay attention to the safety of our learners, staff, and parents of our schools.”

The order by Governor Sanwo-Olu for Lagos private schools to reopen is coming after Private and public schools in the state were shut on Monday over safety concerns following outbreak of violence during the #ENDSARS protests.

While Governor Sanwo-Olu has ordered Lagos private schools to reopen, the governor, however, said Lagos public schools remain shut.
