Our correspondent reports that the schools were de-certified due to examination malpractices.
According to the Director of Examination, Ministry of Education, Gombe State, Ali Yaya, they were decertified due to malpractice-related issues.
The Director made the disclosure during a meeting with principals of the state secondary schools and the management of the ministry.
