Umar said all the schools are expected to collect new registration forms to fill for new certificates to be issued.

He said the move was part of the state government’s commitment towards sanitising the operations of private schools and to ensure adherence to established laws and guidelines.

He charged the proprietors to pay their 10 percent tax to the government as and when due for the progress of the sector, adding that his return to the position of managing the private schools should not spark fears, saying he is not out to victimize anyone.
