The Federal Ministry of Education has refuted a widely circulated social media message claiming the Federal Government has ordered all schools across the country to shut down from November 24, 2025.
In a statement on Saturday, the Ministry’s Director of Press and Public Relations, Borioowo Folasade, described the message as fake and not issued by the Federal Government, the Ministry of Education, any state ministry, or any security agency.
The Ministry urged the public to rely solely on verified information from official government platforms and warned against the spread of unverified claims.
It advised citizens to cross-check any school-related announcements with recognised authorities and ignore messages circulating without official endorsement.
