He explained that failure to do the needful in this regard will continue to produce youths with limited thinking of indulging into criminal activities as their only way of having a means of living.

Turning to the uniforms he has distributed, Alhaji Altine Shehu said it was in fulfilment of the promised to that effect made when he visited the school on the fifth of October 2022 where he met quite a number of pupils without uniforms.

According to him at the first instance he personally pledged to provide school uniforms to only those he met without them during his inspection visit but later expand the gesture to categories of pupils that need them in the school.

Kajiji to this end called on parent of the benefited pupils to complement the gesture by sending their children in school and maintaining the good sanitary condition of the uniforms.
