Ezekiah Wenje, Nyamagana MP
Setting
an example to be followed by other MPs, the Nyamagana MP, Ezekiah Wenje
has led the inauguration of a mobile laboratory and other equipment
worth 5.9m/- meant to secondary schools in his constituency.
The laboratory, complete with laptops, a projector and a solar panel, was presented to the Nyamagana Municipal Council in a short ceremony held over the weekend in Mwanza Region and received by Mwanza City Council Education Officer Emmanuel Katemi.
Presenting the equipment, Wenje made it clear that this was not a personal venture but the communal effort of all members of the constituency to raise the needed funds.
Nyamagana constituency has 30 secondary schools and of these, 12 schools have no laboratory making the donation invaluable. That being the case, the constituency fund committee unanimously agreed to spend the raised money to buy the mobile laboratory and needed equipment in a bid to solve the lack of laboratories in most schools in the area.
“As a member of parliament my major task is to make sure that schools are equipped with modern equipment to enable students study well. So I am optimistic that this mobile laboratory will improve performance in science subjects in our constituency,” he said.
The MP called upon Nyamagana Municipal Council to ensure that the mobile laboratory serves as many secondary schools in the area as possible pledging to purchase even more mobile laboratories to meet the students need.
