The Rivers State government (RSG) has said it is yet to decide on the possibility of online classes for third term for the 2019/2020 academic session for primary and secondary schools.
Commissioner for Education Prof. Kaniye Ebeku, spoke while reacting to an alleged imposition of N50,000 levy on public and private schopls in the state to be able to hook up to the e-class portal of the state, said there is no such directives from the state ministry of education to that effect.
Describing the accusation as handiwork of mischief makers, Prof. Ebeku said, the state has not printed any educational material, either in form of CD plate or otherwise for sale to students in the state, urging parents and guardians to ignore such information, insisting that, decision is yet to be reached on whether or not third term classes in the state will resume online, as the government is yet to resolve some critical issues that could affect smooth holding of online classes in the state to the benefit of all.
