The sorry and disheartening state of the once famous and one of the Senior Secondary Schools in Imo State, Senior Secondary Technical School, Dikenafai in Ideato South, will soon be a thing of the past as Prince Uchenna Odoemena has passionately come to the rescue of the college in all ramifications.
\nAddressing the school principal, Mrs Patience Uzoma and her staff in the principal’s office, Prince Odoemena, who came with two of his friends who are also old boys of the school, Engr Darlington Ibeh and Mr Victor Madumere, decried the level of decay in the school academically, morally and infrastructurally. He commended the principal and her staff for their selfless efforts notwithstanding, as he assured them that he and his team of friends (old boys) have decided to come in fully to help them revive and restore the school to her past glory.
\nSpeaking earlier, Engr Ibe revealed that it has been a source of worry to most concerned old boys of the college seeing their alma mater decay to such a shameful state right before their very eyes. He commended Prince Odoemena who, after one of their usual discussions about the state of the college, decided to ignite the fire of intervention and revival in the school. Engr Ibe, while addressing the students, stressed on the need for increase in reading culture and habit.
\nContributing, Mr Madumere went back memory lane to recall how good it used to feel to be a student or teacher at SSTS and even coming around the school premises. All he regretted is in the opposite presently and extolled Prince Odoemena for his understanding and patriotism.
\nThe highlight of the visit was the presentation of fifteen copies of the book \u201cThe Daylight Pestilence\u201d written by Engr Darlington Ibeh to the school by Prince Odoemena who also promised to register West African Examination Council (WAEC) for all the SS3 students, sponsor academic competitions in the school and help to revive the dilapidated infrastructural facilities no matter how little.
\nOn behalf of the staff, the principal, Mrs Uzoma, thanked Prince Odoemena and his team for the kind and timely intervention, as she stressed the nonchalant attitude of parents towards encouraging their children and wards academically and morally.
\nShe promised that the staff will surely sustain if not upgrade their efforts, as they now know that there are patriotic indigenes of the community and old boys of the college who appreciate and are ready to help their efforts.
\nEngr Ibeh benevolently appreciated about five students who were able to prove that they had read one or two novels on their own with a copy of his novel each as a source of encouragement and inspiration to read more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
