Kaduna State governor, Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai has said that his son, Abubakar El-Rufai is still schooling at a public school in the state.

The governor made the clarification on Thursday on his verified Twitter handle when a user identified as @sarmerdk2 sought to know if his son was still schooling at a public school and his current grade. El-Rufai last year enrolled his child in a government school as a show of commitment to revamp public schools in the state.

Replying to the inquiry, the governor said, “THANKS! – Abubakar S. El-Rufai is doing well, & was enjoying his schooling until the coronavirus virus shut-down in March. He was promoted to Class 2 just before closure of our public schools. Thank you@sarmerdk2 for the concern.”

African News Today reported that primary and secondary schools in Kaduna State reopened on October 19, 2020 after the COVID-19 induced shutdown. The permission to reopen gradually was granted to pupils in Primary 6 while those in lower classes are yet to resume.
