The schools namely; Ahaba Imenyi community school and Uguafia Primary school all in Abia-North now wear brand new looks as result of the reconstruction works facilitated by Senator Orji Kalu.
In less than a year in office Senator Kalu has embarked on the renovation of schools in the five local Governments of his Senatorial district, this is in addition to 19 road projects currently being constructed by Chief Whip with some already at their completion stage.
Prior to the infrastructural overhauling by Senator Kalu the primary schools was in sorry state characterized by bushes, dilapidated structures, roofless & windowless classrooms. The condition of the school not only obstructed the learning process but also posed as danger to the staff and students.
