Joy and sigh of relief engulfed the entire Nyasoko Primary School community after the Redeemed Gospel Church started building Sh3million classrooms.

The two classrooms comes after media exposed pupils at the school learning under trees and in dilapidated classrooms after a rainstorm.

The Redeemed Gospel Christian Church led by pastor Prince Okechukwu Obasije said the amount is done through donation of members.

“As a church we are still financing a Sh18million loan to build out church in Nairobi, despite the burden when we saw the classroom we chose to help,” he said.

The missionary from Nigeria said the classroom block which was launched on Monday will be over by December.

The pastor added that the school that is located in the remote parts of Suna West in Migori will be built to the modern standards .

The school headmaster John Ngwala said that after the plight of the devastated school was highlighted in the media, he received calls from the church who later came and visited the school.

“We are happy that at last we have two classrooms to help in our dire infrastructure needs,” Ngwala said.

The school chairman Joab Otieno embraced the gesture and lauded the church for the effort.

The two said the construction will be done in a open and transparent manner.
