“This is Oloduwa primary school opuama built by the Delta State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission(DESOPADEC).

“The building collapsed on Friday immediately the pupils closed for the day’s learning activities. I want to use this medium to appeal to our proactive, listening and smart governor, Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, Hon. Aduge Okorodudu, Executive Chairman Warri North LGA, Delta state Commissioner of Education, Rt. Hon. Patrick Ukah and Hon. Rev. Michael Diden Ejele, Chairman DESOPADEC, to look into this pathetic incident as a matter of urgency to send a team of engineers to inspect and reconstruct the school.

“Opuama is one of the highest oil producing communities in Delta state and also the highest in warri North LGA, but lacks government infrastructures.

“As we speak, the pupils have no hope of learning on Monday and as we all know, the academic session is running out,” he added.
