1 Killed, Many Injured As School Wall Collapses In Kado-Abuja

Posted on by

Kado village in Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) in FCT was yesterday thrown into mourning when a classroom wall of a private school in the area collapsed; killing one of the pupils, while others sustained various degrees of injuries.

An eyewitness said Friday that the wall of one of the classrooms, belonging to Monsour Nursery and Primary School, suddenly caved in and collapsed over the pupils, just as they were taking their break meal for the day.

It was gathered that the deceased, David Jacob, a 4-year-old pupil, whose parents are from Kaduna State was killed, when he was hit by one of the collapsing blocks, while the injured are receiving treatment at the Gwarinpa General Hospital.

Acting secretary, FCT Education Secretariat, Mallam Musa Maikasuwa, who was at the scene of the incident,  told journalists that the school is among the over 500 schools closed down recently by the secretariat for operating illegally.

Maikasuwa however explained that the proprietor of the school, Ogbonna Uba had removed the seal and commenced, without permission from his office, adding that the law would take its cause, because it is a violation of an existing law.

He advised parents in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to stop sending their children to substandard and unregistered schools, saying that they should move their children to public schools in their area to avoid such a disaster in the future.

  5. My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
    I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he’s tryiong none
    the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on various websites
    for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.

    I have heard excellent things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my
    wordpress posts into it? Any kind of help would be really appreciated!
