Governor Ben Ayade of Cross River says all the public schools in the state will resume on Tuesday, June 16.
This was disclosed in a statement made available to newsmen in Calabar by his special adviser on media and publicity, Christian Ita.
This as Governor Ayade unveiled the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) made at the state-owned garment factory and is being mass-produced.
Governor Ayade said the protective gears, which include face shields and PPE overalls, will be distributed to schools free of charge for the use of students and medical personnel in the state.
He said the state government does not want children to continue to stay at home as doing so will foster moral decadence and laziness.
Governor Ayade also mentioned that it is high time the federal government started to also show love and support to Cross River state as it has started mass producing PPE which will help save health workers in the country.
He said the state government has seriously invested with the PPE production, adding that best quality materials are being used while experts from India who specialise in mass production have been brought in.
