Briefing newsmen at the building site in Riyom Local Government Council , Kasuwa applauded the Rt. Hon. Simon Bako Lalong reinforced the contractors to the site with funds to fast-track the completion of the project.
According to him, with the lean resources on the ground, Ron Properties Nigeria limited was able to reach this advanced stage even though some of the contractors abandon the projects halfway.

He said, we are within time to deliver quality work using modern equipment in the finishing as the company now works 24 hours to ensure that they meet the dateline of commissioning by Governor Lalong “.
Samuel stated that all the contractors have resumed work so we are appealing to the new contractor to come to the site and inspect the project for delivery and payment.
He said the construction firm was making steady progress in the work as most of the classrooms will soon be completed to pave way for the furnishing of the school which has a capacity for about 500 pupils.
Samuel Kasuwa added that the admin block is one of the Legacy Projects meant to provide quality education for children of the poor who cannot afford private schools.
He said “we have vowed that we cannot fail to make quality education available to the children of the poor and underprivileged because our administration believes in taking care of everyone particularly the weak and vulnerable.
Kasuwa revealed that whenever these projects are completed, the standards will be so high and the condition of learning would be so suitable that many will prefer to bring their children here than to take them to private schools”

The contractor assured the Governor that by February the project will be completed as funds are released on time, as the workers are very committed to the project.
