The government of the state of Katsina, Nigeria, has launched actions on social networks in its schools and among the authorities, ordering schools to ban the use of WhatsApp to spread the news.
The state ministry of education has ordered public school principals to abolish all Whatsapp groups in their schools.
The same goes for Facebook, where officials are asked to avoid using a social media platform to comment on government activities, either positively or negatively.
The circular, MOE/ZDKT/ADG/VOL.1, came from the Zonal Education Quality Assurance of the Katsina State Ministry of Education and was sent to all heads and principals of public schools in the state.
The circular, dated December 7 and titled, “Abolishing of Whatsapp group in our schools” was signed by one Muhammad Sada Dikko, for the Zonal Coordinator.
It reads, “I am directed to write and inform all the principals to direct the various Group Admin in their respective schools to wipe out the so-called school Whatsapp. The abolishing of this group becomes necessary due to the multiple postings being made, which create problems and insubordination between the school authority and its staff.
“Principals should also remind their staff about the government circular that prohibits any civil servant from commenting positively or negatively on government activities on Facebook or Whatsapp.”
