This follows a similar directive for the closure of universities for the same purpose. The directive, signed by the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, and dated Feb 10th, was communicated by the Executive Secretary of the National Board for Technical Education, Prof. Idris Bugaje, to the Rectors and Provosts of polytechnics.

Due to concerns for the safety of staff, students, and properties, the Minister of Education has directed the shutdown of all polytechnics after consultations with relevant security agencies. Academic activities will be suspended from February 22nd to March 14th, 2023.

The NBTE Executive Secretary has been instructed to convey these directives to all institutions under his regulatory jurisdiction.

I've always had an unwavering passion for technology and the digital world as someone who wears many hats such as blogger, website developer, article writer, and SEO specialist. However, I firmly believe that sports, particularly football, play a crucial role in promoting fitness and an active lifestyle. That's why I've always found time for football, whether it's playing on the field or being an ardent supporter.
