In the circular which was signed by the Director of Schools, Remi Ajayi, Olomojobi explained that the postponement came after the Worker’s Day and Eid-el-Fitr holidays declared by the federal government.

“Consequently, schools’ resumption hitherto scheduled for Monday, May 2, has been postponed as a result of the public holidays to mark Workers’ Day and Sallah celebration," Olomojobi was quoted.
