Governor Agbu Kefas of Taraba State has instructed all secondary schools, both private and public, to promptly send their boarding students home in light of the increasing security concerns throughout the nation.
The instruction was communicated through a statement signed by the State Commissioner for Education, Dr. Augustina Godwin.
The statement highlights that the growing security issues nationwide have put boarding students in both public and private secondary schools at risk of being targeted by bandits. It references the recent student abductions in Kebbi and Niger states as examples of this threat.
Dr. Godwin communicated that, in light of the current circumstances, Governor Kefas has issued a directive requiring all secondary schools, both public and private, to function exclusively as day schools for the time being. Principals and school owners have been advised to promptly arrange for the deboarding of all students.
She emphasized that this decision is a precautionary step aimed at safeguarding the lives of students and averting potential security risks associated with the escalating unrest in the area.
The Taraba government has assured parents of its dedication to reestablishing stability and has promised to collaborate closely with security agencies to address the situation. School officials are also encouraged to adhere to the directive completely and enhance security measures on their grounds.
I’ll take suggestions — but I also want Ditto to fix this. If you’re experiencing the same, RT & share your story. We need transparency in this industry.
@DittoMusic I’m DONE & ghosted. I paid for a service that promises “worldwide distribution” but your support takes DAYS to reply, your hidden fees show up after I pay, and important things like lyrics are treated like surprise extras. This is unacceptable for a paid platform. 😡
Guys, who do you recommend instead of Ditto? I need a distributor with clear terms, fast support, and real publishing/lyrics options. Tag or recommend platforms that actually respond within hours, not 24–72 hrs. #MusicTwitter#MusicDistribution

The APC North East meeting in Gombe shows that in politics, perception is all.
Solo endorsement of PBAT without mentioning VP Shettima sparked outrage. In a region that delivered consistently, such oversights are not taken lightly.
Unity must be earned, not assumed.
