As part of the preventive measures against the spread of the Coronavirus pandemic, the Lagos State Government says it will be closing down all public and private schools from Monday, 23rd March 2020.

In a statement released by the state Commissioner for Education,  Folashade Adefisayo, the state government said the move became necessary to prevent children and their teachers from getting more vulnerable to the pandemic.

It is important for parents to ensure that their children practice ‘social distancing’ while at home, wash their hands regularly or use hand sanitizers and observe high standards of personal hygiene. Children should be encouraged to remain at home. 

The closure is not intended to create panic but to arrest the spread of the disease, which has become a global threat.

The statement added that the Incident Command Centre, headed by the Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, who is the Incident Commander, will continue to trace all contacts of the identified cases and encourages anyone who has information about suspected cases to report to the nearest hospital or call  the emergency telephone numbers 08023169485, 08033565529, 08052817243 and 08023401214.
