Most public schools in Enugu resumed normal classes on Tuesday after the organised labour called off its six-day protest against the removal of fuel subsidy by the Federal Government.<\/p>\n

Our correspondent reports that teachers and students turned out for school activities.<\/p>\n

Schools visited included, Uwani Boys Secondary School, Urban Anglican Secondary School, Council Primary School at Obiagu and the Day Secondary School, Independence Layout.<\/p>\n

The Vice-Principal in charge of Administration at the Day Secondary School,Mrs Ugonna Ani,\u00a0 was seen conducting the regular morning assembly for the students as early as 7 a.m.<\/p>\n

Ani urged the students to pay attention to their studies because the term would be very short and also reminded them that they had lost one week to the strike.<\/p>\n

Ateacher at the Council Primary School, Mrs Nnedimma Eze, called on parents to help their children at home academically to enable them to catch up quickly.<\/p>\n

According to her, \u201cwe will do everything humanly possible to cover up as the strike has affected our syllabuses by one week.<\/p>\n

\u201cConducting extra-mural classes will be our best option for students to cover up.\u201d<\/p>\n

In her remarks, a teacher at the Uwani Boys Secondary School, Mrs Ifeoma Obiejesi,\u00a0 said the Yuletide break was enough for students to forget a lot of things about their studies.<\/p>\n

According to her, the teaching profession is not like office work because teachers put more effort in their work.<\/p>\n

Miss Nkem Iloh, a student of the Day Secondary School, said she was happy that school had resumed after the Yuletide holidays and the extra one week occasioned by the workers\u2019 strike.<\/p>\n

Our correspondent reports that students dusted their classrooms and cleaned their school environments in preparation for the day\u2019s academic activities.<\/p>\n
