"A brother was so pained about the very bad shape of YMC Secondary School and took to the social media to write me an open letter, we immediately swung into action visiting the school the next day and after inspecting the whole environment, personally I was disappointed at the dilapidated and very dusty environment our children had to sit and receive lectures" Though, this donation is not enough, but we must start from somewhere. The buildings are fallen everyday and this applies to most schools in Ankpa LGA. I will keep trying my best and also calling on the government to save the public schools in Kogi State" he said.
