The Ministry of General Education should supervise operations of community schools in Kanyama Ward 10, says councillor Brighton Bilumba...
Mr. Bilumba said that there are more than 5 community schools in his ward which were not in good shape.
He said community schools like Good Shepherd, Libonene, Mukwiza, and Fighting Poverty needed the attention of Government under the ministry of General Education to help them improve their standards.
He also said the community schools had many challenges among which infrastructure and under staffing were the major ones.
“Our community schools’ infrastructures are very poor and the sanitation leaves much to be desired,” he said. See more here:https://www.dailynation.news/…/ministry-of-education-asked…/

Chanda John Chimba wrote ;
Each day many children die from different diseases, hunger , bad water and lack of proper medication .
Many of these kids die not because they want to or their right time has come but because life has given them no choice but to let go , if society puts its hands together we can surely avoid and prevent such deaths , these kids have a wide range of dreams Of becoming better citizens and providing service to our county.
... But these dreams are short lived and remain only as a dream , the Change we want to see is within us , if we put our hands together we can certainty make the lives of the less privileged kids a better life by providing the little necessities they need to grow their dreams .
Let us all remember to help the needy and under privileged in our society, change begins with us and help starts from us .
WE CAN DO IT .
