Stakeholders in Tambari village under Miri Ward, a suburb in Bauchi Local Government Area, the capital of the state have cried woes, lamenting the pitiable status of the only public Primary school in the area, imploring the intervention of the government under Governor Bala Mohammed.

Bemouning her pedicament to our correspondent, Amina, a 10 year old Pupil of the Tambari Model Primary School seem to have unfortunately lost interest preferring to hawk due to the situation of the school.

She decries: “I prefer to beg or hawk because it seems to pay off, anytime I go to School, it is as if I am wasting my time; only few teachers are coming.

” The few who come, are not even comfortable as they get to stand throughout whenever they are in School; no chairs to sit, no Staff room for them.

“So, I prefer to hawk, because, we seem to be forgotten. As you can see, the building has collapsed, no chairs to sit. We sit on the floor to be able to learn. The Zinks are off the remaining building shsttered”, She said.

Also, Speaking to our correspondent an elder in the area Abubakar Ahmad said they have written letters to all relevant government agencies on the rotten nature of the school without any response,

“We have written to the Office of the Governor, the first lady, SUPEB, and it has all been acknowleged and with us, I can show you if you want.

” We are really appealing to the relevant government agencies or bodies to intervene as our children are suffering in terms of having access to quality education and this has been like this for more than five years now”, he said.

Our correspondent observed that the Pupils study under very harsh conditions; get hit by the sun during the day, and beaten by the rain during raining season which has now compelled many to quit School for begging— a scenario that has debased the education value of Bauchi State for a long time. .
