The Member of Parliament for Yendi, Farouk Aliu Mahama, as part of his resolve to boast education in his constituency, has rehabilitated some school blocks that were in deplorable states.
Some schools since their establishment have never seen any major work and have become very deplorable.
Some classroom blocks have had their roofs ripped off by rainstorms and have for a long time remained unattended, leaving school children at the mercy of the weather.
At the handing-over ceremony, the MP reiterated his commitment to improving the lives of his constituents.
“As an MP for the area, I am resolved to bring relief to my people. The state of these classroom blocks under which pupils were studying is not the best. I have decided to rehabilitate the classrooms to make them comfortable for our young brothers and sisters. What we’ve done will go a long way to improve the educational standards here in the constituency.”
Pupils and students can now have a conducive place to study.
Headteachers have expressed their happiness for the MP for the good work done.
“We are very happy that the MP has come to our aid. The classrooms were death traps, but now pupils and teachers can now have a conducive place for studies. Teaching and learning can go on smoothly. We used to close any time it was threatening to rain, or the sun was shining.”
