The Ebonyi State Executive Council has taken decisive action against contractors handling the Model Secondary School projects across the state, ordering the immediate termination of poorly executed projects.
The decision followed a detailed report presented by the EXCO Committee on Model Schools. The report highlighted underperformance and poor quality delivery by several contractors entrusted with the initiative.
By pulling the plug on the non-performing contracts, the state government signaled its determination to uphold standards in the education sector. The move also aligns with Governor Francis Nwifuru’s administration’s resolve to reposition education as a driver of human capital development.
While details on the next steps remain pending, stakeholders say the government’s firmness could set a precedent for accountability in public projects and reassure communities that quality education infrastructure will not be compromised.
