The decision of the Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo, to promptly close all public and private schools across the state, coupled with a clear warning of sanctions against defaulters, is a timely and commendable step that once again reflects proactive governance and people-centered leadership.
This decisive action by His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Kogi State, underscores a deep commitment to the safety, wellbeing, and future of our children, as the most valuable asset of any society.
By placing the lives and security of young learners above all other considerations, the Governor has clearly demonstrated that the next generation remains a top priority of his administration.
At a time when leadership is measured by the ability to act swiftly and responsibly, this intervention speaks volumes. It reflects foresight, courage, and a genuine concern for human life, qualities that continue to distinguish His Excellency Usman Ododo as a leader who governs with conscience and compassion.
This move further reassures parents, guardians, and stakeholders that the Kogi State Government will always rise to its responsibility of protecting its people, especially the most vulnerable. It is leadership like this that inspires confidence and positions His Excellency as a true protector and dependable steward of dear State.
I commend His Excellency for this prompt and responsible action and urge continued cooperation from all citizens to ensure full compliance in the collective interest of our children and our state.
Signed:
Hon. Prince Oluwakayode Emmanuel Eseyin.
