In Primary School FCT Learn Learn with Crumbling Roof, Missing Windows - Report

Despite billions of Naira assigned to the development of the federal capital area, Monitng pointed out that no significant efforts were made to improve the school’s conditions. More than 211 students from the Local Education Authority Primary School (Lea) in Giri, Gwagwalada, Federal Capital Territory (FCT), are forced to study in unsafe and uncomfortable conditions as a result of the serious neglect of their school’s infrastructure. The school, founded in 1976 and opposite the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Ltd. -filling station is located in a deplorable state, with broken ceilings, missing windows and a crumbling roof. According to Monitng, a civil technology platform that visited the school, the classrooms do not have ceiling plates and windows, which exposed students to extreme weather, dust and insects. The school’s fence is broken, and it does not have an administrative block, which makes the learning environment unsafe and unconditional. “The neglect of Giri Primary School Giri Primary School is a clear indication of the government’s failure to prioritize education, despite the resources available,” Monitng said. “I call on Minister Nyesom Wike to act immediately and the urgent repairs at Giri Primary School Primary School Primary School to prioritize Primary School,” the statement continued. “The children deserve to learn in a safe, comfortable environment, and the government must step in to provide the necessary resources to resolve this school.” The group also called on Senator Ireti Kingibe to intervene, emphasizing that immediate action is needed to secure the future of the students. “Senator Ireti Kingibe, your intervention is essential to ensure that this school is restored. The Giri children deserve a learning space that protects their health and encourages academic success. It’s time to act and protect the future of these children,” Monitng added. Despite billions of Naira assigned to the development of the federal capital area, Monitng pointed out that no significant efforts were made to improve the school’s conditions. The platform emphasized that the situation at Giri Primary School can no longer be ignored with more than 211 students enrolled. Campaigns have taken on social media by using hashtags such as #FixourSchools, #ducationforall and #giriprimaryschool to ask for urgent government interference.
