The Rivers State Ministry of Education has carefully evaluated the tragic incident that occurred at one of our approved schools “WISDOM GATE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOLS” in Eligbolo, resulting in the death of a two-year old girl on the 17th of March, 2026.
While we deeply sympathize with the Parents of the child over the irreparable loss, and respect their privacy during this moments of grief, we appeal to members of the public to do same and avoid speculations.
As a Ministry, we have interfaced with the management of the school and conducted our own independent investigations into the incident.
Consequently, WISDOM GATE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL, Campus 1, Eligbolo, is hereby suspended from operations and shall not resume academic activities until all issues surrounding the matter are fully resolved.
The Ministry of Education remains committed to ensuring standard care, safety and sustainability while continuing to provide quality assurance both in public and private Schools.
This is Signed by
Dr. Peters Nwagor,
Hon. Commissioner for Education,
Rivers State.
