The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) has issued a salient warning to schools in the territory to desist from working with the Parents Teachers Association (PTA) to extort money from students and teachers through unauthorized projects.

The FCTA also warned that it’s illegal for schools to hide behind special initiatives to place undue difficulties on parents and guardians by collecting illegal fees.

Dahir El-Katuzu, FCTA Secretary for Education Secretariat, gave the warning during a school resumption inspection at Kubwa Government Secondary School.
