Post created on 9:58 am

 

Senator Ede Dafinone, representing Delta Central Senatorial District, paid a visit to one of the oldest Technical Colleges in Nigeria, Sapele Technical College founded in 1952 to get first-hand information on the state of decaying infrastructure and equipment in the school.

The lawmaker said that the visit offered him and his team the opportunity to have a spot assessment of the challenges facing the school, particularly the poor state of some of the ageing equipment for teaching practicals and the absence of power supply to the school in the past two years.

He added that the visit gave him an insight into what can be done in the short-term, medium-term and long-term by Federal and State governments to reposition this great institution to an enviable height.

Accompanied on this visit by Delta Central Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Chief Paulinus Akpeki, Chief Ejaife Odebala, Hon Felix Ayemidejor, Chief Patrick Akamovba, Chief Godday Okpako and other stakeholders, he promised to work with the state and federal government to give the school a facelift.

Moved by the school principal’s testimony and what he had seen, the senator promised to do everything he can to bring positive development to the school.

“I’m not going to make any promises that I can’t keep,” he said. “But I can promise that I’m going to do everything I can to help this school.

“This a fact-finding visit, I understand what our community wants I will carry that message to the state and the federal and be sure that we are doing the right thing. And I know what the end goal is and will be sure that we carry it out.”

Speaking earlier, the Principal of Sapele Technical College, Mrs Itawansa Rosemary, took the Senator and his team through the Automobile Mechanic Department, Electrical Workshop Department, Furniture Department and other departments of the school, decried the poor state of the school and asked for government interventions.
