He said the construction of the school is a long time dream come true, made possible by the reliable network telecommunications company Airtel. \u00a0Mr. Sesay said if the people should think about the number of schools in Kenema, there are many, but it got into Airtel\u2019s mind to have carefully selected the Provincial Islamic Pre Primary School. \u00a0He said that is because Airtel believes that education is key to the success of individuals in the world including society at large.<\/p>\n
The Inspector of schools for the eastern region from the Ministry of Education Science and Technology, Mr. M.Y Kallon thanked Airtel for complementing government\u2019s effort in building schools across the country. \u00a0He said the Ministry of Education is aware of the fact that Airtel is helping greatly in terms of ensuring quality education in the country. \u00a0He said the Provincial Islamic Pre Primary School was almost dead, had it not been for the intervention of Airtel. He called on the community to maintain the school and put its structure for its intended use and purpose.<\/p>\n
