The National Senior Secondary Education Commission (NSSEC) announced on Wednesday that 50 senior secondary schools across the country will undergo infrastructural upgrades as part of its mandate as an intervention agency.

Speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony held at a selected school in Koton Karfe, Kogi State, the Executive Secretary of the commission, Dr. Iyela Ajayi, disclosed that a comprehensive NEEDS assessment had been conducted prior to the project, which is part of the rehabilitation mandate issued by President Bols Tinubu.

The upgrade, according to Ajayi, will cost approximately N47.5bn billion in the first phase.

“This is just the first phase. Once completed, we will report to the President and minister before moving to the next phase.”

He assured that schools not included in this phase would be considered in future interventions.

NSSEC, established in 2021 under former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, is tasked with overseeing the development of senior secondary schools nationwide.
