Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu, has opined
that the government’s Free School Meal Initiative
is a move to put an end to the school drop-out
condition in the state.
Ikpeazu made the statement during the School
Lunch Programme held on Monday at Ntigha
primary school in Isiala Ngwa North Local
Government Area.
The governor pointed out that the scheme would
ensure that all the children were adequately taken
care of irrespective of parental status and
background.
The Governor said he felt indebted to the children
who were the future leaders, hinting that the
scheme guaranteed that every pupil in Abia State
was sure of at least one meal a day.
He said the initiative was geared towards closing
the gap, providing meals to the children and
assisting the needy which, would be sustained by
Abia families.
Free school lunch bags, a bus for food distribution
to various primary schools and employment for
the chef and stewards amongst others were part
of the gains associated with the scheme.
The governor’s wife, Mrs Nkechi Ikpeazu also
dewormed thousands of primary school pupils
during the programme. dailypost.ng/2016/06/14/free-meal-in-schools-will-curb-drop-out-rate-ikpeazu/ |
