“In the document provided, we have suggested how we can move our education sector forward during this pandemic.

“We don’t want to make it known at this time so that some people will not take our proposed guidelines for school reopening.

“The documents were presented to you so that you can criticise and make inputs as major stakeholders,” Nwajiuba said.
