BENIN CITY – THE Edo State government on Wednesday said it has shut down three public secondary schools till further notice due to security concerns.
The decision may not be unconnected to a leaked memo from the Department of State Services (DSS) to the State Commandant of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), in which the intelligence agency said it had uncovered a planned abduction in public schools in Edo North Senatorial District.
