Pupils of Bawa Bwari Central Primary School, Niger State, have received writing materials from a humanitarian organisation, Refuge Foundation.
The intervention is aimed at easing the cost of returning to school for children from some Niger state vulnerable families.
The initiative, implemented under the foundation’s Kits4Kids project, provided each pupil with essential learning materials, such as pencils, erasers, pens and four 80-leaf exercise books.
The gesture, which brought together pupils, parents, community leaders and representatives of the foundation, was facilitated by the Niger State Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Hon. Obed Nana.
The Niger State Coordinator of the Refuge Foundation, Mrs Esther Abayomi, who represented the founder of the organisation, Mrs Ugonna Kanu, said the intervention reflected the foundation’s commitment to supporting vulnerable children and displaced persons in the country.
