ASUU tells govt, Don’t be in a haste to reopening schools 

ACADEMIC Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has advised federal and state governments not to hasten to reopen schools until all necessary measures have been put in place to prevent the spread of Coronavirus in schools.

The president of the union, Professor Biodun Ogunyemi, gave the advice in an exclusive interview with Tribune Education, saying that is the only way Nigeria and its people will not regret.

He noted that most of the schools, especially those owned by government, have overcrowded classrooms, poor sanitary systems and no running water, among other challenges – which would all make the practice of social/physical distancing and personal hygiene almost impossible for both students and their teachers
