Education Minister Douglas Syakalima says the closure is meant to relieve stress on learners and parents over the recurring incidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr. Syakalima adds by issuing a strong warning to any person who will be found to be behind the fires and the law will be applied accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
