They have no office for teachers, no library, and they have no toilet.
“The building has fallen apart and the roof of many of them are no more. Kids sit on the floor to learn while the sun shines on them.
“I plead with the Abia state government and Prof Ikechi Mgbeoji (commissioner for education Abia State) to assist us in reviving the state of these schools.
