Ahead of the commissioning of the newly constructed Model Schools across the 21 local government areas of Adamawa State, the government has stepped up preparations to ensure all projects are completed before the event.
As part of the readiness measures, the Commissioner for Local Government Affairs, Hon. Ibrahim Mijinyawa Yayaji, the Commissioner for Education, Dr. Umar Garba Pella, and the Executive Chairman of the State Universal Basic Education Board (ADSUBEB), Dr. Umar Babayi, inspected school furniture and facilities at central stores Jimeta. They also visited Jimeta Model School.
During the inspection, the team expressed satisfaction with the level of preparedness, describing the schools as a major milestone in the government’s commitment to quality education.
They noted that the model schools, which will serve as centers of excellence, will be equipped with modern technology and stimulating learning facilities, while urging residents to support the initiative.
It will be recalled that in January 2024, Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri flagged off the construction of brand-new model nursery, primary, and junior secondary schools in each of the 21 LGAs.
The governor said the projects would strengthen the role of local governments in serving their communities and assured that his administration remains committed to equitable development across the state.
Governor Fintiri further explained that the schools will help boost enrollment and warned parents and guardians against denying children access to education, stressing that defaulters will face prosecution.
