Students of Ajao Estate Junior High School have benefitted from the Basic Education and Literacy Project executed by Rotary Club of Anthony Golden. The students got school bags, exercise books and biros.
They were also admonished on how to live a humanitarian and moral life.Speaking at the event, the Impact President of the club, Aniekan Udoh said the materials were given to 100 students, particularly members of the Interact club to register their interest in the school that they have adopted it.
“We are very much interested in the progress of this school as well as in the students, hence on yearly basis, we endeavour to make our presence felt in the school through impactful projects.
“This is their formative years and we are ensuring we sow such a seed into the students’ education that would embellish their future leadership quality,” he said.
The school’s principal, Mrs. Kasila Kotun Amode appreciated the club, adding that they expect more assistance in the future. She promised to continue working on the students’ lives to make them imbibe the habit of helping others.
Representative of Education District II, Hamzat Ahmed described the project as a laudable one that would go a long way to reducing the financial burden on the students’ parents.
