NPP Daboya Mankarigu Parliamentary aspirant, Hon. Danladi Saaka has donated 50 desks to Kito primary school to enhance teaching and learning.

The philanthropist cum politician visited Kito on a campaign trail and discovered pupils sit on the floor during classes hours.

This unfortunate development was hampering teaching and learning since teachers had to struggle to regulate as well as to conduct class exercises and keeping pupils attention. Mr. Saaka who is in a fierce contest with four others is believed to be the best bet who can snatch the seat currently occupied by the NDC.

"We are formidable, committed and convinced that delegates will adhere to calls and appeals by the general public by giving him a landslide victory," he emphasized during the presentation of the items.
