The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) has directed all public senior secondary schools in Abuja to shut down by Friday, November 28, citing escalating security concerns across the nation’s capital.
The directive, issued to school authorities on Tuesday, follows intelligence reports indicating heightened risks to students and staff. The shutdown is expected to remain in place until further notice, pending security assessments and clearance from relevant agencies.
Education officials said the move is a preventive measure aimed at safeguarding students as authorities intensify efforts to reinforce security within and around vulnerable institutions.
Parents and guardians have been advised to comply with the directive and ensure the safe return of their children.
