Federal Ministry of Education notice on fake school-closure message

The Federal Ministry of Education is alerting students, parents, and school staff about a fake message shared on social media. The post claims that all schools across the country will close from 24 November 2025. This claim is false and did not come from any government office or security agency.
The notice here helps students and families understand what is true and how to treat any false school-closure news online.
What the fake school-closure message says
The false message tells people that schools across the country must close from 24 November 2025.
It is not an official order.
It is not based on any real government decision about school closure.
It creates fear and confusion for students, parents, teachers, and school leaders.
Who did not send this message
The fake post did not come from any of the following:
- The Federal Government
- The Federal Ministry of Education
- Any State Government or State Ministry of Education
- Any recognised security agency
Any message that claims school closure and does not clearly come from one of these bodies should be treated as false.
Official channels of the Federal Ministry of Education
Students and families should trust school news only when it comes through clear and known channels. These include:
- Announcements from the Federal Government
- Notices from the Federal Ministry of Education
- Statements from State Governments and State Ministries of Education
- Updates from recognised security agencies
Real school-closure news will be shared through these official voices. Messages copied from random social media accounts or chat groups are not safe sources of truth.
What the public should do with false school-closure posts
Members of the public are encouraged to:
- Ignore any school-closure message that does not come from an official channel
- Avoid sharing screenshots, voice notes, or forwarded texts that look unclear
- Wait for proper statements from the Federal Government, the Federal Ministry of Education, State Governments, State Ministries of Education, or recognised security agencies
By making these simple choices, students and families help limit the spread of misinformation.
Key message for students and families
The school-closure message linked to 24 November 2025 is fake. It did not come from the Federal Government, the Federal Ministry of Education, any State Ministry of Education, or any recognised security agency. Students, parents, and teachers should trust only verified notices from these bodies and should stop false posts from spreading. When in doubt, they should pause, check, and share nothing until an official message from the Federal Ministry of Education or other authorised body appears.
