Parents have expressed concern over the learning condition of pupils of the Local Education Authority (LEA) Primary School in Pachuwa community in Abaji Area Council of the FCT.
Some parents who spoke with our reporter decried the lack of infrastructure: instructional materials like desks and chairs, and dilapidated classrooms.
They said pupils of the school sit on the bare floor inside the classroom to take lessons due to lack of desks and chairs.
Saidu Ibrahim, a parent, said, “The entire classrooms are in a dilapidated state. Children sit on the floor to write inside the classrooms due to the lack of desks and chairs.”

He added that pupils were sent home whenever it rained due to the dilapidated classrooms.
A teacher in the school, Abdullahi Tanimu, said the school had a total population of 125, but that it was without desks, chairs and other learning materials.
While noting that the head teacher and PTA complained severally to the authorities, he also appealed to the authorities of the FCT Universal Basic Education Board (UBEB) to come to the aid of the school.
No official of the LEA in the council was willing to speak on the issue.
