In a bid to tackle the growing concern of parents neglecting their children’s education, the community of Ikwuorie Ohanku Ndoki, Abia State, has introduced a new measure. As from yesterday, September 3, 2024, parents who fail to send their children to school will be required to pay a fine.

Parents In Abia Community To Face Fines For Not Sending Children To School

This decision was reached during a meeting with local leaders, including chiefs, town council members, and youth leaders. The move aims to address the worrying trend of parents prioritizing farm work over their children’s education, despite the availability of free schools.
