EXPOSED!!! Attn, Governor @HyacinthAlia This is the current condition of RCM Primary School, Adikpo, in Mayange Mbayan, Ushongo LGA, Benue State. Since 2023, this school has reportedly remained in ruins, while children who should be learning are left without a decent classroom. Behind these broken walls are innocent children with dreams, ambitions and a future worth fighting for. How can we expect them to learn effectively when the very environment meant to support their education has been abandoned? Parents worry about their children’s future, and the community continues to bear the painful consequences of this neglect. Residents have reportedly written several letters to relevant stakeholders, pleading for the school to be renovated, but their appeals have yet to produce the needed results. This is happening in a country where an estimated 18.3 million children are out of school. Every neglected school risks making an already serious education crisis worse. Meanwhile, Benue State reportedly received over ₦137.38 billion in FAAC allocations between January and September 2026. If this figure is confirmed, residents deserve to know what proportion of public resources is being invested in education and why a school in this condition has remained unattended for so long. We call on the Benue State Government, the Ministry of Education, SUBEB, Ushongo LGA and all relevant authorities to urgently intervene and restore RCM Primary School to a safe, functional learning environment. These children did not choose to be born into a community where their school could be left to decay. They deserve the same opportunity to learn, grow and succeed as every other Nigerian child. A classroom is not a luxury. Education is a right, and these children must not be forgotten. Please amplify this appeal until the authorities listen and action is taken. #FixPublicSchools
