Lagos Students in Disarray as School Faces Closure After Government Demolition

Students at Saint Margaret Group of Schools in Ikorodu, Lagos, are facing a disrupted academic schedule after the Lagos State Building Control Agency (LSBCA) partially demolished parts of the school building and ordered its closure. This comes amidst a reported disagreement between the school’s management and the state government.

According to Sahara Reporters, the LSBCA sealed the school on Monday, preventing students from resuming classes. The reason for the demolition and closure remains unclear, but reports suggest a possible violation of building codes by the school. The LSBCA is said to have threatened the school management with complete demolition if the situation is not rectified.

This incident has thrown the educational plans of students and faculty into disarray. With the school sealed, it is uncertain when or if classes will resume. Parents are likely to express concern about the disruption to their children’s education, especially with crucial exams approaching.

Efforts to reach the Lagos State Government and the Saint Margaret Group of Schools management for comments were unsuccessful at the time of this publication.

This is a developing story, and further details are awaited. It is crucial for both parties to reach an amicable resolution to minimize disruption to the academic activities of the students.
