Anambra sanctions seven schools over graduation parties

Anambra State Government in Nigeria has imposed sanctions on seven private schools for organizing graduation parties, which violates a recent ban. The schools are required to refund all funds collected from parents related to these events within one month or risk closure. The directive came from the Commissioner for Education, Dr. Ekene Ogugua, who emphasized the need to prevent unauthorized financial charges on parents, especially amid rising education costs. The affected schools include Kings School, Amawbia; Paraiso Montessori School, Awka; Bluepoint School, Awka; Favour Dot Queen Academy, Awka; Little Angel British School, Aguleri; Handmaid Infant Jesus Nursery and Primary School, Awka; and Frobel Height Academy, Awka. The government aims to enforce discipline in the education sector and ensure compliance with approved education policies.
