Seun Kuti
Reopening of schools by the Nigerian government amid the second wave of coronavirus, is wickedness. Afrobeat singer, Seun Kuti, said this while condemning the Federal Government for the directive.
Kuti, in a post shared on Instagram described the action of the government as wickedness, adding that politicians who recommended the reopening of schools do not have their children attending the said schools.
He mentioned that the only reason students had been forced to return to school was because no one was willing to invest in virtual classrooms, opining that the Nigerian ruling elites simply hate the struggling citizens.
Wrote he: “The only reason these children and undergraduates are forced to resume is because no one is willing to invest in virtual classrooms for them. There is no immediate profit to be made. This is wickedness. Pure and simple”.
Kuti is among concerned parents who have expressed their reservations over the resumption of schools despite increasing number of COVID-19 cases in the country.
