The Nigerian Navy has inaugurated the renovated Major IE Muazu Memorial Primary School in Adunu, Paikoro Local Government Area of Niger State, as part of efforts to strengthen civil-military relations.
The Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ogalla, said that the project was implemented under the Chief of Naval Staff’s Special Intervention Quick Impact Scheme to foster community development and honour Rear Admiral Istifanus Muazu Albara.
Ogalla emphasized the importance of the Navy’s community-focused initiatives, which include over 15 projects across the country stating that these projects, launched by senior Navy officers, aim to improve the socio-economic conditions of grassroots communities.
The renovation of the school provides two new classroom blocks, three refurbished classrooms, and offices. Security enhancements, such as a perimeter fence and security post, were added in line with the Safe School Initiative to improve safety in the learning environment.
The Nigerian Navy also provided modern amenities, including new toilets, furniture, and solar-powered lights.
