Governor
Ben Ayade of Cross River State has ordered the suspension of any type of
prayers in public or private primary and secondary school in the state.
The
governor also directed that all teachers with effect from next year must be in
suits during official hours.
The
directive which was sent to all zonal heads in the state said,
“the ministry hereby directs all
public and private primary and secondary schools across the state to suspend
all assemblies (morning and afternoon) till further notice.”
All
school heads were directed to comply strictly or risk sanctions.
Reacting
to the development, the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) signed by
Archbishop J. E.
Ukpo and Apostle Iwara Oleh Obeten, state chairman and
secretary respectively, said such directive was completely unacceptable. CAN
said the directive will negatively affect the upbringing of children and urged
the state government to immediately withdraw same.
Nawa ooo.But what could have lead to the directives..
