The All Workers Convergence(AWC) has advised parents and guardians in Nigeria to physically assess and evaluate schools before allowing their children and wards to resume.
The AWC gave this advice through its National Coordinator, Comrade Andrew Emelieze.
''The AWC advises parents, guardians, Parents Teachers Associations(PTA) and the civil society at large to challenge the purported reopening of schools in order to save our future. They should physically visit the schools to ascertain if these schools have complied with the guidelines for resumption before releasing and allowing their children and wards to resume. The idea to reopen schools is the most dangerous step to take at this critical period, when the positive cases of coronavirus pandemic is on the increase all over the country.'' Our Government is attempting to experiment with the lives of our children, especially when schools eventually reopen'', Comrade Emelieze noted.
Indeed, the World Health Organization (WHO) has warned that coronavirus is becoming endemic.
