The governor who expressed displeasure over the poor facilities at the school said, "now that I have seen things for myself, I know the depth of the problem we have in this sector and we will be responsible in allocating scarce resources.

"We will come back here to ensure that basic standards are met. The truth is that basic needs are not met and it is a shame. "As a government, we want to apologise to you for living in this kind of condition and we will make sure that minimum standards are met," the governor said.

Abdulrazaq directed the Permanent Secretary, Kware State Ministry of Education and Human Capital Development, Hajia Mariam Garuba to urgently submit a recommendation to the government on what the school needs to give the children a good head start in life.
