He thanked all Eggon sons and daughters, among other supporters, for contributing positively to the development of the school.

“I am here to see things for myself in order to ensure that quality work is done.

“As you can see, the masons and other labourers are doing quality work. The ceiling is in order in the classrooms. I am happy with the quality of work done so far,” he said.

Abuluya urged the masons and other workers to see that good job was delivered to ensure durability.

“I want to make Eggon Community Secondary School the best in the state and the country at large.

“I will continue to prioritise the welfare of teachers and students, as we will not compromise standard,” he said.

He urged the principal and other members of staff to continue to perform their duties without fear or favour towards improving the standard of education in the school.
