The Abia state government is on a “hunt” for children who are out of school during school hours.

Goodluck Ubochi, the state commissioner for basic and secondary education, said Abia’s education marshals will commence the hunt on March 1, 2025.

Ubochi spoke on Tuesday, Feb. 25, during a press conference.

He said pupils not found in school during school hours would be arrested and used to find and apprehend their parents who would be punished.

Any person that knows he can't take care of a child and send him or her to school has no business having a child.

That's a good one, though I can't remember where but i thought they did something like this some years back as well.
