Just In: SMART SCHOOL OR SMART LOOTING? ANOTHER RECEIPT FROM IGBERE

Just In: SMART SCHOOL OR SMART LOOTING? ANOTHER RECEIPT FROM IGBERE

This image is Elu-Okwe Primary School in Amaukwu Igbere, Bende LGA—a living, breathing school, not a rumour or propaganda. Yet the Abia State Government claimed it was demolished because it had been awarded for upgrade to a smart school. Today, no smart school exists. The roof is failing, classrooms leak, and pupils still run for cover whenever it rains. Despite community appeals for urgent renovation, intervention was halted on the grounds that the project had been “awarded.” Months later, nothing has happened. This raises serious questions about the state’s claim of spending ₦100 billion on public school repairs. Smart schools do not disappear, and infrastructure does not exist only on paper. Abia people are no longer asking for explanations—they are demanding results. Where are the smart schools?

The Office of the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives has dismissed as false and misleading the Abia State Government’s claims concerning infrastructure projects attracted by Rt. Hon. Benjamin Okezie Kalu. The office clarified that the land along the Umuahia–Bende Road was communally donated, not allocated by the state government, and described allegations of unauthorized demolition of school facilities as baseless. It further accused the Otti administration of deliberate propaganda aimed at undermining genuine development efforts, while reaffirming the Deputy Speaker’s commitment to attracting critical infrastructure to Abia State in the interest of the people.

Strike: Defend Your Rights, NLC, TUC Urge FCTA Workers

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) have urged striking Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) workers to stand firm and defend their rights amid an ongoing dispute with FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike. In a joint statement, the labour centres condemned what they described as intimidation and harassment of workers, pledging full solidarity and insisting that the strike will continue until meaningful negotiations are held. The industrial action, triggered by unresolved welfare and labour demands, has disrupted activities across major government offices in Abuja despite a court order directing workers to suspend the strike.
