Abia State Govt Set To Prosecute Parents For Not Sending Their Kids To School

Abia State government says it is now an offence for parents in the state not to send their children and wards to school starting from January 1, 2025.


The Commissioner for Information, Okey Kanu disclosed this at the Government House, Umuahia, on Monday while briefing journalists on the outcome of this week’s State Executive Council meeting presided over by Governor Alex Otti.
Kanu, who said that the decision was part of the ongoing reforms in the educational sector of the state, stated that the issue of poverty is no longer a reason for non-acquisition of free and basic education in Abia State.

He stressed the need for parents to take advantage of the tuition-free policy in the state to send their children and wards to school, warning that defaulting parents would be prosecuted in line with the Abia State Child’s Law 2006.
