The Ughelli South Local Government Boss, who was represented by the Council’s Supervisor for Environment and Agriculture, Mr. Sylvester Uzoh, appealed to JCI to extend the gesture to other schools in the Local Government Area in order to impact positively on other disadvantaged pupils.

In his remark, President of JCI Warri Chapter, Asare Michael Segun commended the school management for providing a conducive environment for the presentation, disclosing that the exercise is in commemoration of JCI 100 years anniversary climaxing September 2015 in Japan.

Mr. Asare promised to initiate programmes that will impact positively on teaching and learning in schools so long as his leadership is able to muster more resources, even as he commended the steadfastness of other JCI, especially the Vice President, South-South and South-East of JCI, Anthony Egonu for making the donation a huge success.
