The Zamfara State Commissioner for Education, Ibrahim Abdullahi, says the operating licenses of more than 500 private schools in the state have been revoked by the state government, over their inability to meet the required operational guidelines.
According to the commissioner, the state governor Muhammad Matawalle had met a poorly-arranged operating setting of private schools, where proprietors were only required to pay a start-up registration fee of N30,000, after which they had the freedom to operate outside the control of the state government.
