Chief Onyemelukwe Eusebius Zonyelu

Chief Onyemelukwe Eusebius Zonyelu, a financial Expert from Igboukwu, Anambra State and the Senatorial aspirant for Anambra South Senatorial District under the umbrella of Action Peoples Party (APP) expressed his appreciation to the present and the former Government of Anambra State on their decision to return the mission schools back to the churches who were the initial promoters of those schools.

It is pertinent to note that before that decision was taken by Anambra State Government, the churches have started opening new schools that when the Government returned the schools to the church, they found it difficult to maintain those schools due lack funds as Anambra State only paid salary of teachers and left maintenance of the school buildings and other miscellaneous expenses for the church to bear and because of the fact that some churches do not have funds to embark on this expenses ,the children in those mission schools experience academic setbacks.

They don’t have the necessary learning facilities and other resources required in the schools for learning.

Also the Government of Anambra State gave scholarships to students that are in Government schools neglecting the children in mission schools. It is proper that Anambra State Government extends the scholarship given to children in Government schools to children in mission schools because the parents of the children in mission schools are also tax payers in the state.So what is sauce for the goose is also sauce for the gander.

In conclusion,the APP senatorial aspirant of Anambra South Senatorial District under the umbrella of Action Peoples Party APP is of the opinion that Anambra State Government should take up maintenance, equipping and miscellaneous expenses of those mission schools they just handed over to the former owners ( Churches). He further stressed that Anambra State Government should also extend her free education scheme to pupils in mission schools because their parents are tax payers like the parents of children in Government schools.
