Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar has commended the Federal government on its decision to reopen secondary schools, to enable exit students sit for the West African examinations.
Earlier on Monday, the Federal Ministry of Education had through a statement announced that exit level students would resume to prepare for their examinations from August 4.
Atiku, through his Twitter handle, @atiku tweeted on Monday commended the Federal Ministry of Education for listening to Nigerians and directing for schools reopening.
“The announcement by the FMoE that the WAEC exam will hold in August is commendable. Learning must go on, especially for exit stage students. I do hope, however, that students writing the exams are well prepared through home study during the lockdown. I wish them the very best.
“I commend the FMoE for acceding to the patriotic counsel that myself and other well-meaning Nigerians and organisations gave with regards to not cancelling the WASSCE exams,” the tweet reads.
