Abia-North Senator, Orji Uzor Kalu, has fulfilled his pledge to renovate classroom blocks in 10 schools within Bende Local Government Area (LGA). The renovated schools include:
– __Apuanu Community School, Item__
– __Umuenyere Alayi Community School__
– __Umuhu Central School, Umuhu Ezechi__
– __Ngwu/Amankwo Community School, Uzuakoli__
– __Ugwueke Central School__
– __Odua Nkpa Community Primary School__
– __Onu Ibina Primary School, Igbere__
– __Ntalakwu Central School__
– __Okia Item Primary School__
– __Etiti Ulo Primary School, Bende__
This development is part of Kalu’s efforts to transform the educational sector in his senatorial zone, making teaching and learning easier for both staff and students ¹. The senator had previously initiated reconstruction works in over 50 schools across the five Local Government Areas in Abia-North, with most of the schools being built during his tenure as governor but left abandoned by subsequent administrations.
Kalu’s commitment to education has earned him praise from constituents, with some describing him as a “promise keeper” ¹. The senator has also initiated other projects, including solar lights and road construction, to improve the lives of his constituents.
This move is seen as a significant step towards improving education in Abia-North and demonstrates Kalu’s dedication to fulfilling his campaign promises.
