Delta Closes 3 Primary Schools, Revokes Licenses Of Others.

The Delta State government has shut down three unregistered schools and revoked the operational licenses of three others in Oshimili-South local government area of the state.

The commissioner for Primary Education, Dr Kingsley Ashibogwu, announced the closure shortly after the routine monitoring of public and private schools across the state.

He listed the affected schools to include Prime Seed of Abraham School, Mater Christi Group of Schools and Shekinah the King Nursery and Primary School, all in Okwe, shut down for operating without approval and licenses.

He also added that the operational licenses of ‘All to Jesus Nursery and Primary School’, Oduke-Okwe, St Helen Fountain of Roses School, Okwe and Winners Vineyard Montessori International School, Okwe, Asaba, were withdrawn for using the school premises as residential apartments and other unacceptable offences.

According to the commissioner, there had been warning owners of private schools on the need to regularise their schools with the state government.

“As a state government, we prioritise the educational well-being of our children. It is on this premise that we have warned on several occasions that owners of schools should regularise the operation of their schools.

“Today, while on our routine monitoring exercises, we saw some schools even bearing ‘Government Approved,’ but when we demanded for their license, there was none.”

Lagos Govt, UBEC Strengthen Ties for Quality Basic Education

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to partnering with the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) to deliver quality and inclusive education for every child in Lagos and across Nigeria.

Speaking through Deputy Governor, Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat, during a courtesy visit by UBEC executives at the Roundhouse, Alausa, Ikeja, Sanwo-Olu stressed that education remains the bedrock of national development and must not be compromised.

He emphasized that in 2025, no Nigerian child should be out of school, adding that education is not bound by region or culture but is a fundamental right.

“If we get primary education right, the future of our children will be secure,” he said.


Sanwo-Olu assured that Lagos would provide qualified teachers, adequate security, and full infrastructure support for UBEC’s Smart Model School in Badagry, while also encouraging peer review and knowledge sharing among states to replicate best practices nationwide.

UBEC’s Executive Secretary, Aisha Garba, praised Lagos for leading in education outcomes, noting that the Badagry Smart School—equipped with modern facilities like computers and interactive boards—could accommodate nearly 1,000 students. She called for state support to sustain the project and highlighted the role of private sector partnerships in driving improved learning nationwide.

The governor further called for data-driven planning, special-needs focus, and routine health checks for pupils to ensure that no child is left behind.
