Osun Govt Bans Graduation Parties for Nursery, Kindergarten Pupils

 


The Osun State Government has banned graduation ceremonies for nursery and kindergarten pupils in both public and private schools.


The directive, issued in a circular dated September 19, 2025, and signed by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Education, M. A. K. Jimoh, cited concerns over financial pressure on parents and loss of academic time.


“It has come to the attention of the Ministry of Education that elaborate graduation ceremonies for Nursery and Kindergarten pupils have become increasingly common,” the circular noted, adding that the events commercialise early childhood education and burden families unnecessarily.


Going forward, graduation ceremonies will only be allowed for pupils completing Primary 6 and students finishing Senior Secondary School 3.


The ministry also released new rules on textbook use in both public and private schools, including faith-based institutions. Schools must now use only government-approved textbooks for at least three years to ensure continuity for siblings, while the practice of inserting workbooks into textbooks is banned.


“Proprietors of faith-based and private schools are required to adhere strictly to the approved list of textbooks,” the statement read.


The government warned that schools violating the directive could face sanctions, including fines or suspension of their registration.


Jimoh urged full compliance, stressing that the policy aims to uphold the integrity of education and ensure focus on genuine academic milestones.

    There's a BIG NEWS for Facebook Creators By Glen Dave Starting from August 31, 2025, Facebook will be replacing its current mon£tization program with a new Content Mon€tization Program.  My people, these are what they are changing:  1.

MONEY IS INDEED THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL, VDM REPLIES PHYNA

Image
  VDM REPLIES PHYNA: Money is indeed the root of all evil. Immediately I saw the list of the things Phyna wanted from Dangote, I smiled.  N1billion was at the top, scholarship for her sister's kids, her sister flown abroad amongst others, I just shook my head. If I had made it to the meeting, we will not speak about money.  We would request that her sister be flown abroad first, then scholarship and Dangote should place Ruth on Salary for life. She probably didn't like my body language when she showed me the list and when I asked that the bikeman should be added.  What secret is there about your family matter that has been on blogs since last week? Is your sister having two kids something to hide in a case like this? Should that be a secret to the public? Why didn't you tell the public you demanded for N1billion from Dangote. You only came back to cry to the public when things didn't go your way
