The Ebonyi State Ministry of Education has actually suspended 2 head teachers indefinitely following a viral video that exposed the deplorable condition of a classroom in the state.
The video, which flowed commonly on social media, revealed pupils finding out in classrooms with unfinished block walls, insufficient facilities and poor infrastructure, sparking outrage and criticism from members of the public.
According to reports, the suspended teachers were accused of being behind the circulation of the video. In response, the state federal government issued suspension letters directing the affected head teachers to hand over all government residential or commercial property in their possession to the next most senior officer in their particular schools.
In a letter dated Might 18, 2026 and signed by the Education Secretary of Ezza-North Local Government Area, Francis Nwonunku, the federal government accused the teachers of gross misbehavior and undermining the administration of Guv Francis Nwifuru.
“You are thus suspended forever as the head instructor of the above school due to your gross misbehavior for denying the school pupils their right to quality education and also screwing up the effort of our education-loving governor of Ebonyi State, Francis Nwifuru,” the letter specified.
The letter further directed the afflicted authorities to right away send all school homes and provide copies of their handover notes to the office of the Education Secretary.
