The Federal Ministry of Education is warning students, parents, and school workers about a fake message going around on social media. The message claims that all schools in Nigeria will close on 24 November 2025, but this is not true. No government office or security agency gave such an order.
What the Fake Message Says
The false post tells people that all schools must shut down from 24 November 2025.
But this claim is wrong because:
- It is not an official announcement
- No government body approved it
- It is meant to cause fear and confusion
Who Did Not Send the Message
The fake message did not come from:
- The Federal Government
- The Federal Ministry of Education
- Any State Government
- Any State Ministry of Education
- Any security agency
Any school-closure message that does not clearly come from these bodies is fake.
Official Sources to Trust
Students and families should only trust information from:
- The Federal Government
- The Federal Ministry of Education
- State Governments and State Ministries of Education
- Recognised security agencies
Real school announcements will be shared through these official channels, not random posts on social media or WhatsApp groups.
What to Do When You See Fake News
The public is advised to:
- Ignore messages that are not from official sources
- Do not forward or share screenshots, voice notes, or posts that look suspicious
- Wait for a real announcement from the right authorities
This helps prevent the spread of wrong information.
The school-closure news for 24 November 2025 is fake. It did not come from any government or security agency. Students, parents, and teachers should only follow verified updates and avoid sharing false posts. When unsure, pause, confirm from official channels, and share nothing until you see a genuine notice.
