Sad! Schools Refuse Admitting Students Displaced By Boko Haram, ‘They Failed To Grab Documents While Fleeing

Some schools in Nigeria are reportedly refusing

students dislodged by Boko Haram terrorists,

saying that they do not have the necessary

documents required for admission.

Schools culpable of this offence are the

Government schools in Abuja, as they are

reported to be turning away hundreds of students

displaced by Boko Haram from northern Nigeria,

denying them education on the grounds that they

are unable to produce the appropriate documents

they failed to grab as they fled the rampaging

terrorists.

It was learnt that government secondary schools

in Abuja are demanding the originals of age

declaration, birth certificate, testimonials, transfer

certificate from the last school and junior school

leaving certificate before the displaced students

can be given admission.

Deprived of education, these students have given

faith to menial jobs to survive.
