New Initiative for Schools Empowerment & Development paid an advocacy visit to the L.E.A Primary School on 25th April 2022. The School has a small population of 83 young pupils and is located in the community of Mission Village, in Masaka, Nasarawa State.
During our visit, we were amazed at the current state of the school and its surroundings. We discovered that this school lacks many facilities needed for conducive learning. Without exaggeration, this particular school needs a whole lot. Their classrooms/staff room was made with zinc. It is better to imagine how hot these classrooms would be during school hours.
Their critical needs are listed below
- A block of 4 classrooms
- Toilets and water facility to keep the toilet clean. It may also serve for drinking purpose.
- Desks and chairs
- Writing board



The young pupils of this school are not left out as they are also in dire need of welfare support. Most of them were barefooted while some could not afford to buy school uniforms and basic writing materials.
We had the opportunity to speak with the headmistress and gathered that the entire school would be glad and relieved if these facilities are provided. The anticipated support will be one way to promote a better environment and education for the pupils. She further confirmed that most of the pupils are children from internally displaced camps and need all the help available. In the course of interaction, we learnt that the school levy which covers school uniforms and exam fees is #2,500 (Two thousand and five hundred naira) only for each pupil. A good number of the pupils could not pay the compulsory school levy.
Of all the identified needs of the school, we would like to seek public support to provide them with a block of 4 classrooms.
We would like to solicit the support of the indigenes, school alumni, political and social elites, corporate bodies and the general public to be a part of this project. It will go a long way in putting smiles on the faces of these students.
