Kwara State Government has deployed security personnel to the 10 mission schools in Ilorin that are at the centre of hijab controversy rocking the state for about one month.
This was said to have been done to forestall any breakdown of law and order.
The schools are C&S College Sabo Oke, St. Anthony College, Offa Road, ECWA School, Oja Iya, Surulere Baptist Secondary School, Bishop Smith Secondary School, Agba Dam, CAC Secondary School Asa Dam road, St. Barnabas Secondary School Sabo Oke, St. John School Maraba, St. Williams Secondary School Taiwo Isale, and St. James Secondary School Maraba.
The state government on Monday ordered the indefinite closure of the schools which were billed to resume following the government’s pronouncement that students be allowed to practise their religion.
Armed soldiers were seen at the entrance of the schools with pilot vehicles stationed at the main gates.
Plain-cloth security men were also seen around the schools so as to forestall any unforeseen situation in the area.
Some Christian leaders who mobilised students to the affected schools were dispersed by the security operatives.
