School News in Nigeria: The first thing that strikes me about school is knowledge gain. Education gives us knowledge of the world around us and changes it into something better. It develops in us a perspective of looking at life. It helps us build opinions and have points of view on things in life. This article gives us information about the Latest Nigerian School News.

The Federal Government has just announced that schools under its control will not be reopening for the forthcoming West African Examination Council (WAEC) exams.

This was disclosed in a tweet post by the aide to President Muhammadu Buhari on New Media, Tolu Ogunlesi from his official Twitter handle on Wednesday, July 8, 2025.

People debate over the subject of whether education is the only thing that gives knowledge. Some say education is the process of gaining information about the surrounding world while knowledge is something very different.

They are right. But then again, information cannot be converted into knowledge without education. Education makes us capable of interpreting things, among other things.

It is not just about lessons in textbooks. It is about the lessons of life.
