Mustapha had said only graduating classes would be allowed to resume.
He had explained that the measure was to allow the graduating classes prepare for their final examinations.
President Muhammadu Buhari had a few months ago ordered the closure of schools due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
The decision was a measure to curb the spread of the virus in Nigeria.
