    Kwara State Government has directed immediate temporary closure of some schools in the state’s capital over Hijab controversy.

    Kemi Adeosun, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education and Human Capital Development, said in a statement that affected schools are: C&S College Sabo Oke , ST. Anthony College, Offa Road, ECWA School  Oja Iya, Surulere Baptist Secondary School, Bishop Smith Secondary School, Agba Dam, CAC Secondary School Asa Dam, St. Barnabas Secondary School Sabo Oke, St. John School Maraba, St. Williams Secondary School Taiwo Isale and St. James Secondary School Maraba.

    The closure comes as a government committee comprising representatives of the Muslim and Christian communities meets today to iron out the differences between the two communities.

    Further communication will be issued to inform members of the public on the development.

    Government calls for calm and urges parents and religious leaders to avoid actions or comments that may further split the two communities.
