As part of efforts to ensure that pupils and students are taught in a conducive environment, the Anambra State government has ordered the immediate closure of Great Mind Academy in Awka, citing an unfit and unhealthy learning environment.

Southeastposts reports that the directive was issued by the Commissioner for Education, Ngozi Chuma-Udeh, following an inspection of the school on Tuesday.

Ms Chuma-Udeh said the school environment was unsuitable for teaching and learning, emphasising that, “The state government will not allow children to study under such unsafe conditions.

She said, “We have directed the Operation Clean and Healthy Anambra (OCHA) Brigade to enforce the closure without delay.”
